Abstract

This paper shows a quick survey about how the FPGA (Field-Programmable Gate Array) can be used to perform image processing and its comparison with other technologies that perform the same task. From robots, to surveillance images and
even to X-ray, the FPGA can be used to perform image processing tasks like recognize certain shapes, process a specific area of an image or even just to compare how similar two images are. This paper introduces what is an image and the main scientific areas where its processing is crucial and performed. Some alternative technologies are presented, and a brief introduction is made about the FPGA. The paper ends with an overview on how the FPGA can be used for image processing and its application in the most relevant scientific areas of this field.
