Abstract :
Recently, real-time processing of image recognition is required for embedded applications such as automotive applications, robotics, entertainment, and so on. OpenCV library is one of the most widely used libraries in image processing. Parallel implementation of OpenCV library on cell broadband engine (Cell), which is one of the most widely used high performance embedded processors, is shown in this paper. Experimental result shows that most of the functions optimized for Cell processor are faster than those optimized for Intel Core 2 Duo E6850 3.00 GHz.
