Abstract

As the autonomous driving market is rapidly growing, research on autonomous driving is being conducted. Self-driving functions should be performed regardless of the weather for the driver's safety. However, misty weather is difficult to autonomous driving because of the lack of visibility, so a defog algorithm should be used. The image obtained through the fog removal algorithm causes the image quality to deteriorate. To improve this problem, HSV color correction is used to increase the sharpness. In this paper, we propose a color correction hardware using HSV that can cope with 4K images. The hardware was designed with Verilog and verified by Modelsim. In addition, the FPGA was implemented with the goal of Xilinx's xc7z045-2ffg900.

자율주행 시장이 급성장함에 따라 자율주행에 대한 연구가 진행되고 있다. 자율주행 기능은 운전자의 안전을 위해 날씨에 상관없이 수행되어야 한다. 하지만 안개 낀 날씨에는 가시성이 떨어져 자율주행에 어려움을 겪기 때문에 안개 제거 알고리즘을 사용해야한다. 안개 제거 알고리즘을 통해 얻은 이미지는 영상의 품질저하를 발생 시킨다. 이러한 문제점을 개선하기 위해서 HSV 색 보정을 이용하여 선명도를 증가시킨다. 본 논문에서는 4K 영상에서도 대응할 수 있는 HSV를 이용한 색 보정 하드웨어를 제안한다. 이 하드웨어는 Verilog로 설계했으며 Modelsim을 통해 검증했다. 또한, Xilinx사의 xc7z045-2ffg900을 목표로 FPGA를 구현하였다.
