Abstract

A neuron MOS (νMOS) vision chip was designed and fabricated for developing high-speed parallel image-processing systems based on cellular-automaton processing. The chip consists of cellular νMOS circuits that implement two fundamental functions in digital image processing: i) cleaning up noise in binary images and ii) detecting edges in the images, in addition to photosensing and image quantizing. Experimental results reveal that the fabricated chip successfully extracted edges from noisy inputs, which demonstrates the great potential of the νMOS vision chip in future image-processing applications.
