  • In this paper, we propose an implementation of JPEG2000 codec on the ARM9 Processor which includes independent memory management facility. The codec and memory management facility together can control the encoding and the decoding process effectively within available memory area. Embedded appliances like cellular phones have very limited internal memory which can't be expanded easily. However, they should provide various applications and services using restricted memory resources. The proposed codec with memory management can provide image quality that is identical to the original image on embedded platform. The implemented codec has no memory conflict with other applications. It shows that the proposed codec can manage memory resources efficiently.

  • The scale invariant feature transform (SIFT) is an effective algorithm used in object recognition, panorama stitching, and image matching. However, due to its complexity, real-time processing is difficult to achieve with current software approaches. The increasing availability of parallel computers makes parallelizing these tasks an attractive approach. This paper proposes a novel parallel approach for SIFT algorithm implementation using a block filtering technique in a Gaussian convolution process on the SIMD Pixel Processor. This implementation fully exposes the available parallelism of the SIFT algorithm process and exploits the processing and input/output capabilities of the processor, which results in a system that can perform real-time image and video compression. We apply this implementation to images and measure the effectiveness of such an approach. Experimental simulation results indicate that the proposed method is capable of real-time applications, and the result of our parallel approach is outstanding in terms of the processing performance.

  • Electronic Speckle Pattern Interferometry(ESPI) using a CW laser, a video system and image processor was applied to the rotating displacement of rigid body. ESPI require no special surface preparation or attachments and displacements between any two arbitrary points on the surface can be measured. The characteristic speckle pattern formed when imaging a scattering surface illuminated by laser light retains phase information, which can be used for interferometric measurement of surface displacement. The application of this principle to measuring in-plane displacement resolved in one direction is described, together with the novel use of television equipment to detect and process the information contained in the speckle pattern. This is faster, and more convenient and versatile than customary photographic methods.

  • Using the real-time image processing technique, we have developed an automatic visual inspection system which detects the defects of the surface muonted components in PCB( missing components, mislocation, mismounts, and reverse polarity, etc ) and collects the quality control and production management data. An image processing system based on a commercial parallel processor, TRANSPUTER by which the image processing time can be largely reduced was designed. Analyzing the collected data, the proposed inspection system contributes to the productivity improvement throughthe reduction of defective rate.

  • In this paper, we propose a technique for high speed removal of sea-fog using a graphic processor. This technique uses a host processor(CPU) and several graphics processors(GPU) capable of parallel processing to remove sea-fog from the input image. In the process of removing sea-fog, the dark channel extraction, the maximum brightness channel extraction, and the calculation of the transmission are performed by the host processor, and the process of refining the transmission by applying the bidirectional filter is performed in parallel through the graphic processor. To verify the proposed parallel processing method, three NVIDIA GTX 1070 GPUs were used to construct the verification environment. As a result, it takes about 140ms when implemented with one graphics processor, and 26ms when implemented using OpenMP and multiple GPGPUs. The proposed a parallel processing algorithm based on the graphics processor unit can be used for safe navigation, port control and monitoring system.
