Abstract |
In this research, the collision detection system based on insect's visual interneuron has been designed. The lobula giant movement detector (LGMD) corresponds to the movement value that increases in direct collision process. If the collision is detected by the LGMD only, it could generate a crash warning even in a non-collision situation, resulting in a lot of false alarms. Directionally sensitive movement detectors (DSMD) are directionally sensitive algorithm based on the elementary movement detectors (EMD) in four directions (up, down, left, and right). In this paper, we propose an efficient VLSI architecture for a realtime collision detection system that is robust to the surrounding environment while improving accuracy. The proposed architecture is synthesized with Dongbu Hightech 110nm standard cell library and shows 333MHz of maximum operating frequency and requires 8400 gates with about 16.5KB of internal memories. |
