Interface Design For Programmable Cameras

چکیده
This paper outlines the process of designing a set of interfaces for a programmable digital camera back-end. The set of interfaces includes a traditional, advanced and development interface. The traditional interface is a replication of a typical camera interface which is present on today’s commodity cameras. The advanced interface provides access to the programmable pipeline on the new camera architecture [Lindsay and Agu 2009]. The development interface is a tool that provides the building blocks for assembling new camera pipelines. We discuss the process and design decisions that were used in implementing the camera interfaces. We also describe how user tasks were modeled and the types of interaction the interfaces provide. This paper also explains the implementation details of building the three interfaces, along with an Expert User study to validate our design.

An Intelligent Computer Interface Utilizing Parallel Picocontrollers (TECHNICAL NOTE)
The design of an interface unit is described, in which RS232 serial data is converted to latched parallel data on 22 independent lines. The data direction of each line is programmable through the serial port. Two picocontrollers are employed in a parallel processing mode to give the required number of I/O pins, and data on the shared serial line is coded to separate data streams to the individu...

متن کاملReconfigurable PCI-Bus Interface (RPCI)
In this paper the Peripheral Component Interface PCI is presented as a target/master reconfigurable interface, based on Programmable Logic Devices PLDs (the Field Programmable Gate Arrays FPGAs and the Complex Programmable Logic Devices CPLDs are collectively referred to herein as PLDs). The core of the PCI interface design is implemented on the 1428 PCI-Interface board Rev. 3.00 using XC4028EX...
متن کاملHardware-software co-design for various Parallel applications using the Concept of Dynamic Partial Reconfiguration at FPGA Partitions
In this paper an effective hardware design methodology for the devices like mobile phones, digital cameras, etc is described. In those devices only few applications are running at given time. So it requires only few hardware blocks to be active. This design approach is based on the idea of configuring and programming the hardware of active application whenever required at a single Field Program...
متن کاملWashington University ’ s Gigabit ATM Desk Area Network †
We present the design of an ATM-based interconnect that serves as a high speed packet-switched equivalent of an I/O bus in a workstation/server. By effectively “extending” an external ATM network into the desk-area, the interconnect also serves as a high performance host-network adapter. An OC-12c (622 Mbps) prototype of the interface is being built at Washington University as part of an ARPA-s...
