IP Camera Front End
The Bitec Camera Front End IP allows developers to interface CMOS and CCD cameras to an Altera FPGA.
Overview
The Bitec Camera Front End IP allows developers to interface CMOS and CCD cameras to an Altera FPGA. Using a memory optimised line buffer, the core sits between a backend SoPC and the raw camera signals. As the line-buffer automatically adapts to the camera resolution, the back-end application can resize or window in real time. An optimised Bayer de-mosaic algorithm is then performed to produce an interpolated RGB triple. A gamma-correction layer allows the core to perform colour correction and user selectable colour space conversion. The core is designed to interface seamlessly to all CMOS and CCD devices.
