Real-time distortion correction system of large-field optical display equipment based on FPGA

Abstract

Current distortion correction systems can not meet the requirements of the large-field optical display equipment because of small field, low resolution, poor real-time property and commonality. "The symmetrical transform" and "the improved bilinear interpolation" were proposed. The general system scheme was designed and implemented in the Virtex-5 FPGA devices. The appropriate data structure of the look-up table was adopted and the optimized scheme for the input memory named "the double even-odd cache" was put forward. MIG (Memory Interface Generator) software tool was utilized to control DDR2 SDRAM and DSP48E was used. The real-time distortion correction system of the large-field optical display equipment was accomplished. The experimental result shows that the correction system can correct the large-field and high-resolution (1280x1024) video image (60 frames per second). The system delays only 1.48ms while the deviation in precision is less than 9' and has the well commonality.
