As the real-time image acquiring and processing need to be dealt with high speed, a image acquisition and preprocessing system is discussed in this paper. It is built on FPGA( field programmable gate array ) with pipelined and parallel technology. The configurable macro function modules provided by Altera company achieve the Sobel edge detection algorithm. The real-time display the image after edge detection works properly and The new design method shorten the development cycle.

Fast edge detection of images can be useful for many real-world applications. Edge detection is not an end application but often the first step of a computer vision application. Therefore, fast and simple edge detection techniques are important for efficient image processing. In this work, we propose a new edge detection algorithm using a combination of the wavelet transform, Shannon Entropy and thresholding. The new algorithm is based on the concept that each Wavelet decomposition level has an assumed level of structure that enables the use of Shannon entropy as a measure of global image structure. The proposed algorithm is developed mathematically and compared to five popular edge detection algorithms. The results show that our solution is low redundancy, noise resilient, and well suited to real-time image processing applications.
