Video Motion Detection using DM648

Hello There:

Has anyone had any experience in the implementation of detecting motion through video?

I would appreciate any help.

Thanks;

Gabriel

  • I have seen this sort of thing at presentations before, there was a TIDC presentation for video analytics that may be interesting to you, though it goes above and beyond mere detection of the motion, you should be able to take a look at the presentation in the TIDC archives.

  • Interesting presentation.  On page 32 they talk about doing double buffered dma to speed up processing, then on page 34 they state that the edma is not a good option.  Did I miss something?  I am assuming that they mean edma without ping-pong buffers is not a good idea, please correct me if I'm wrong.

  • I believe your assertion is correct, it sounds like they mean to just use the EDMA and wait on it being bad instead of having a ping pong type setup whereby the EDMA can continually transfer while the CPU is working in parallel. I think this ping pong buffering is what they are calling scratch and they are comparing using the DMA itself to using DMA in a scratch context.

    Unfortunately this is a presentation I did not get to catch at TIDC so I am just interpreting it like you :).
