Abstract :
This paper presents a simplified version of the retinex image processing algorithm. A strong reduction of the complexity of the algorithm in terms of operations required and bit resolution of the elaboration has been obtained keeping the quality of the results acceptable. The algorithm has been implemented on different FPGAs and used in real time applications.
