Telechips: RTL Hardware Design Acceleration for On-The-Fly Image (De-)Warper in Automotive SoC Using C++ HLS

Dewarping (i.e., fisheye lens distortion correction) plays an important role in automotive image processing as fisheye cameras are widely used in automotive applications. We designed a new dewarping engine processing video stream data on-the-fly, which differs from the traditional GPU-based memory-to-memory approach, by utilizing hierarchical design methodology in Catapult HLS.
