Design of high-speed real-time processing platform faced on video tracking

A miniature high-speed real-time video tracking platform which is based on the core of FPGA+DSP has been developed. The platform adopts I2C bus, link-port data transfer protocol and multi-DSP high-speed video processing. Through the combined use of DSP and FPGA, the platform has the following characteristics: high integration, strong computing power, flexible structure, good expansibility and so on, which reduce the complexity of design, improve the capacity of integrated processing, and can be applied in real-time video information processing effectively. Experimental results show that the system can capture video image(640 × 480 pixels) and complete track processing at the rate of 65 frames per sec, exceeding the conventional video rate of 30 frames per sec, hence meet the real-time video processing requirements.
