Design of an online video edge detection device for bottle caps based on FPGA

Abstract

An online video edge detection device for bottle caps is designed and implemented using OV7670 video module and FPGA based control unit. By Verilog language programming, the device realizes the menu type parametric setting of the external VGA display, and completes the Roberts edge detection of real-time video image, which improves the speed of image processing. By improving the detection algorithm, the noise is effectively suppressed, and clear and coherent edge images are derived. The design improves the working environment, and avoids the harm to human body.
