Abstract
In this paper, we propose a new architecture that can extract information of numerous particles in an image at high-speed. Particle information means various characteristics obtained from image moments. The proposed architecture simultaneously extracts moments of multiple particles in parallel. This parallel extraction enables a significant reduction in the amount of calculation required. In addition, asynchronous operation allows fast processing. We believe that this architecture can obtain more information in real-time even at high frame rates than conventional processing, providing advantages in a wide range of applications, mainly for image measurement. This paper details our proposed architecture and reviews some results of its implementation in FPGA.
