Popis: Blob detection and localization is a common process used in the machine vision. Current existing blob detection method is using 2-dimensional kernel matrix which is higher in time consumption and also memory space. This study has proposed a dedicated digital architecture consist of two modules to detect binary image blob using only 1 -dimensional image pixel. First module is used to detect connected pixel in a row of pixel, and second module is used to perform windowing to justify blob location. This study has been successfully implemented and tested on Altera DE2 FPGA board. The proposed architecture only takes 24 clock cycles to deliver blob location and related features. The tested architecture only utilizes 1597 logic element, or 4.81% of the FPGA total resources.
