MENENDEZ ALONSO, Reinaldo Javier; LOPEZ-PORTILLA VIGIL, Bárbaro Maykel  and  INGLESIAS MARTINEZ, Miguel Enrique. Desin of a transer system and image processing on a FPGA. Rev. Fac. Ing. UCV [online]. 2013, vol.28, n.2, pp.13-22. ISSN 0798-4065.

This paper describes the design of a transfer and image processing system between a PC and a Digilent Nexys2 development kit. To this aim, we analyze the theoretical framework and the aforementioned kit, so that it is possible to implement the designs needed to achieve the desired application. The research proposes the use of computer resident software for transferring images and making decisions on them, while the modules VHDL implemented in the FPGA (embedded in Nexys2 kit) perform the processing. The development of this research allows for an efficient and flexible platform, along with a low-cost image processing. The result obtained in this research is of great importance from the educational point of view since it can show all of the advantages of an FPGA and can encourage the development of new image processing architectures without having to build the interface communication between the computer and the development kit, a fact that could be laborious.

Keywords : Transferring; Processing; Images; Computer; FPGA; VHDL.
