Abstract (EN):
Optical flow algorithms generally demand for high computational power and huge storage capacities. This paper is a contribution for real-time implementation of an optical flow algorithm on a pipeline machine. This overall optical flow computation methodology is presented and evaluated on a set of synthetic and real image sequences. Results are compared to other implementations using as measures the average angular error, the optical flow density and the root mean square error. The proposed implementation achieves very low computation delays, allowing operation at standard video frame-rate and resolution. It compares favorably to recent implementations in standard microprocessors and in parallel hardware.
