Abstract
This paper proposes an evolvable hardware system with capability of evolution under varying illumination environment, which is implemented on reconfigurable field programmable gate array platform with ARM core and genetic algorithm processor. The proposed evolvable hardware system for image processing consists of the reconfigurable hardware module and the evolvable software module, which are implemented using SoC platform board with the Xilinx Virtex2 FPGA, the ARM core and the GAP. The experiment result shows that images affected by environment changes are enhanced for various illumination image environments.
