Embedded Linux Remote Control System to Achieve the Stereo Image

A new embedded SoC(System on a Chip) system, which enables the remote control and capture of a stereo image was developed and used to measure the distance and provide 3D information. This system is a simple and economical stereo system that overcomes the limitations of the systems currently in operation, which include the requirement of high-end equipment and software. The stereo image system developed in this study consisted of two CCDs (Charge Coupled Device), two image decoders to convert the cameras output analog signal into digital and TFT-LCD (Thin Film Transistor Liquid Crystal Display) to display the captured image. An I2C, stereo block and LCD IP control were used to control the system employing Embedded Linux for real-time operation. Web Server was also installed in the embedded stereo system to allow for remote networking with clients. The HTML(Hyper Text Markup Language) file and CGI (Common Gateway Interface) program were designed to control the embedded system in a server. In this system, remote control and image capture from a PC were enabled on the Web.
