  • Abstract
    A VLSI chip to compute two morphological operations, dilation and erosion, over discrete black and white images is presented here. The chip contains 96 PEs organized as a 12*8 2D array of processing elements (PEs) performing in an SIMD mode. Each PE is connected to its four neighbors.<>
