Geometric moment extraction equipment for image processing applications.
An equipment for calculating 2nd, 3rd, and higher order geometric moments by using accumulators, adders, subtractors, and multiplier blocks has been presented. The performance analysis of the proposed equipment with the existing systems in terms of speed and power dissipation has been carried out and has been shown that the computational time to calculate the geometric moments is reduced to half and the power dissipation is reduced by a factor of about 3 at a clock frequency of 10 MHz. The hardware has been implemented in BSIM4.3.0 50 nm technology operating at 1 V and its functionality has been verified using P-Spice simulator.
