Abstract

In recent years, computer binocular vision has been commonly utilized to provide depth information for autonomous vehicles. This paper presents an efficient binocular vision system implemented on an SoC TMS320C6678 DSP for real-time depth information extrapolation, where the search range propagates from the bottom of an image to its top. To further improve the stereo matching efficiency, the cost function is factorized into five independent parts. The value of each part is pre-calculated and stored in the DSP memory for direct data indexing. The experimental results illustrate that the proposed algorithm performs in real time, when processing the KITTI stereo datasets with eight cores in parallel.
