Abstract :
The present work describes a reliable improved gradient optical flow estimation system using FPGAs. This structure is based on space-temporal processing and the use of steerable filters. This model can be enhanced using psychophysical and bioinspired properties according to biological vision in order to mimic the singularity and the performance of mammalians. Experimental results and the resources used to analyze the associate customizability of the system are discussed.
