Abstract

This paper describes a bus-oriented hardware architecture for the acquisition, processing and display of high-resolution two dimensional image data patterns. The system contains dedicated bipolar processors for image acquisition and display and a moderately coupled microprocessor system for image processing. Two separate asynchronous common buses are used to support high-speed data transfer and task synchronisation in the system. The design and implementation aspects of major system components, such as pixel-bus, interleaved memory modules, image processor unit and display processor are discussed in detail. Advanced design tools for modelling parallel processes, microprograming and pipelining were used throughout the design.
