Abstract :
This work presents hardware architecture to determine the position of objects in video images. The architecture was developed based on a programmable logic device, taking advantage of some characteristics of the standard video signals to achieve the real time operation requirements. A component-labeling algorithm is proposed to adapt the centroid determination process to the architecture. It is also presented an application example demonstrating the architecture´s efficiency.
