Abstract

Computer Science Computer Science, Hardware & Architecture Computer Science, Software Engineering Engineering Engineering, Electrical & Electronic Science & Technology Technology
This paper presents a low cost FPGA based solution for a real-time moving object tracking system. A specialized architecture is presented based on a soft RISC processor capable of running kernel based mean shift tracking algorithm. The system includes a frame grabber unit that stores the video frame in DDR RAM using direct memory access, a video display unit to monitor the tracking statistics and a soft processor capable of running mean shift tracking algorithm within the required time constraint.
