Vision Chips

Vision chips, or smart visual sensors, are those sensors that have integrated image acquisition and parallel processing, often at the pixel level, using dedicated analog and digital circuits. Vision Chips presents a systematic approach to the design and analysis of vision chips using analog VLSL. It presents algorithmic level implementation issues, from both the VLSI and computer vision points of view. It reviews the VLSI technologies and general analog VLSI design methodologies, in the context of suitability for vision chips. It describes chip-level architectural issues, including…
