Abstract
Image processing systems for special purposes gain high performance by executing standardised operations such as filtering or edge extraction on specific chips. The architecture of the presented chip set is the starting point for a massively parallel image processing directly coupled to the image acquisition in space as well as in time domain. The presented architecture reduces the necessary bandwidth for signal transmission and allows a small and power saving module to be integrated in the camera system without the heavy power and chip size load associated with fully focal plane integrated approaches [1,2].
