Abstract(in Japanese) (See Japanese page)
Abstract(in English) A window-parallel architecture is presented to achieve high-speed stereo matching based on SAD (Sum of Absolute Differences) computation. If a disparity constraint is used to reduce the computational amount, the number of candidate windows for SAD computation changes depending on the reference-window position. This article presents a new scheduling method selecting a pair of reference windows such that the candidate-window number becomes constant. As a result, 100% utilization of processing elements can be achieved. The performance of the VLSI processor becomes 500 times higher than that of a general-purpose processor (Pentium4@2GHz).
