Abstract
A methodology for implementing real-time DSP applications on a field programmable gate arrays (FPGA) using Xilinx System Generator (XSG) for Matlab is presented in this paper.
It presents architecture for Edge Detection using Sobel Filter for image processing using Xilinx System Generator. The design was implemented targeting a Spartan3A DSP 3400 device (XC3SD3400A-4FGG676C) then a Virtex 5 (xc5vlx50-1ff676). The Edge Detection method has been verified successfully with no visually perceptual errors in the resulted images.
