A survey of systems-on-chip solutions for smart cameras

Abstract

With the advances in electronic manufacturing technologies, integration of disparate technologies including sensors, analog components, mixed signal units and digital processing cores into a single chip has become reality, which is an increasing trend in different application domains, especially for distributed smart camera products. In this chapter, a survey of existing System-on-Chip solutions for distributed smart cameras able to capture and intelligently process video in real-time and communicate with other cameras and sensors remotely is presented.
