Abstract

We designed and fabricated a vision chip for edge detection with a 160×120 pixel array by using 0.35 µm standard complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor (CMOS) technology. The designed vision chip is based on a retinal structure with a resistive network to improve the speed of operation. To improve the quality of final edge images, we applied a saturating resistive circuit to the resistive network. The light-adaptation mechanism of the edge detection circuit was quantitatively analyzed using a simple model of the saturating resistive element. To verify improvement, we compared the simulation results of the proposed circuit to the results of previous circuits.
