Rapid development in the architecture and fabrication technology of field programmable gate array (FPGA) and system on a chip (SoC) in the last two decades is dramatically increasing the reliability of those devices as a cost-effective alternative for traditional real-time image processing systems. Module reusability nature of FPGA and SoC development decreases design and implementation time noticeably. On-site reconfigurability allows for intensive design alterations to occur at a small cost. This study is presenting the design and implementation of a new hardware accelerator for an edge detector on Xilinx 7 series FPGA devices based on a fuzzy logic approach. The …
