초록

In this paper, we propose the new hardware architecture which implements the stereo matching algorithm using the dynamic programming method. The dynamic programming method is used in finding the corresponding pixels between the left image and the right image. The proposed MOEPE(Merged Odd-Even PE) architecture operates in the systolic manner and finds the disparities from the intensities of the pixels on the epipolar line. The number of PEs used in the MOEPE architecture is the number of the range constraint, which reduced the number of the necessary PEs dramatically compared to the traditional method which uses the PEs with the number of pixels on the epipolar line. For the normal method by 25 times. The proposed architecture is modeled with the VHDL code and simulated by the SYNOPSYS tool.
