Bilateralni filtr pro HDR tone mapping (IP jádro)

bilateral filter, HDR, IP core

The IP core realizes the configuration of the FPGA for bilateral image filtering. Implementation can process up to 200 Mpix/s. The implementation is written in C ++ for Vivado HLS 2015.2 and allows to change the size and the parametrs of the bilateral filter and also accuracy of computation. The IP core is optimized for the Xilinx Zynq SoC platform.

This Agreement is concluded pursuant to the provisions of section 2358 et seq. of the Act No. 89/2012 Coll., the Civil Code
