Abstract :
A hierarchical block matching algorithm is a promising technique for motion estimation, especially in terms of computations. A real-time implementation of this algorithm was investigated for a high-definition TV data input rate. This system used a two-step hierarchical block matching algorithm. A highly parallel and pipelining multiprocessor architecture built with specific processors is described
