FAST-9 Accelerator

FAST-9 Algorithm for Corner Detection

Software

• The C++ code used OpenCV.
• Visual Studio projects are intended to be tested in software before being implemented in hardware.

Hardware

• The Verilog code is hardware that detects corners in an image of 180x120 size for real-time image processing.
• One pixel operates for about 20 clocks to detect corners.
• The FAST-9 algorithm 3 stage was designed as a pipeline.

Design

Example

💡 I applied the FAST-9 algorithm to this project: Autonomous-Drone-Design
