Blob Detector IP Core Overview The Blob Detector IP Core is a high-performance hardware accelerator for detecting and localizing the brightest blob in grayscale images. It computes the blob centroid with subpixel accuracy, making it ideal for precision imaging tasks in real-time systems. The core supports two centroid refinement methods—zero crossing and parabolic peak shift—and…
Binning IP Core Overview The Binning IP core efficiently reduces the resolution of monochromatic images by combining adjacent pixels into a single output pixel. Ideal for applications that require lower data volume without compromising essential image content, it supports both summing and averaging binning methods. This IP core is optimized for high-performance image processing and…
2DFIR IP Core Overview The 2DFIR IP core performs high-efficiency 2D convolution on monochrome images using user-defined kernels of up to 32×32 pixels. Designed for advanced image enhancement, feature extraction, and filtering, this core enables real-time processing of high-resolution images in hardware. It supports multiple operation modes, including configurable kernel switching and simultaneous multi-kernel filtering….
IMPRIO IP Core: Image Prioritization for the OPIC Instrument in ESA’s Comet Interceptor Mission Introduction The primary outcome of scientific space missions is data — and the volume and scientific value of that data ultimately determine the mission’s return on investment. With flagship missions often exceeding €100 million, the natural expectation is to capture and…
