| Abstract(in English) | We describe a multi-chip aVLSI system which emulates the orientation selective response of the simple cell in the primary visual cortex. The system consists of a silicon retina and an orientation-selective chip which mimics the parallel and hierarchical architecture of visual system in the brain. The input image is filtered by the Laplacian-Gaussian-like receptive field of the silicon retina, and then it is transferred to the orientation-selective chip. The orientation-selective chip selectively aggregates multiple pixels, mimicking the feedforward model. The spatial properties of analog responses from the system were verified for different preferred orientation under indoor illumination. The multi-chip architecture used in this study is considered to be applicable in the implementation of higher order cells in the visual cortex. |
