Abstract
GARCES SOCARRAS, Luis Manuel; SANCHEZ SOLANO, Santiago; BROX JIMENEZ, Piedad and CABRERA SARMIENTO, Alejandro José. Control modules for video processing systems based on the Xilinx VFBC. EAC [online]. 2013, vol.34, n.1, pp.100-109. ISSN 1815-5928.
This paper develops hardware modules for rapid prototyping of video processing systems based on the Xilinx video frame buffer controller (VFBC). This implementation allows the storage of video frames in memory external to the programmable device, as well as its proper handle for designing spatio-temporal processing systems using the Xilinx System Generator model-based design flow. The hardware modules are responsible for the configuration and control of writing and reading VFBC interfaces, as well as the manipulation of video synchronization signals for interconnecting input and output peripherals. The article also include the description of the elaborated modules and the analysis of the results of its use for the development of a temporal video processing demonstrator using a simple motion detector on a Spartan-6 SP605 Evaluation Platform board.
