Development of Autonomous Driving System Using Programmable SoCs

We propose an autonomous driving system using programmable SoCs. Our system consists of two FPGA boards of Zybo Z7-20, three cameras, and one motor driver of H-bridge circuits with independent left and right motors. The main part of our system is divided into two blocks: driving control and object detection, which are implemented on each Zybo Z7-20. Within the development framework of programmable SoC of Zynq 7000, we adopt a HW/SW co-design to blance the design period and system performance to satisify the goals of the FPGA design competition.
