PCI to AER hardware/software interface for real time vision processing

In this paper we present a mechanism that allows the coprocessing of video in real-time based into Address-Event-Representation (A ER) convolutions chips. Several software methods fur generating synthetic AEK streams from frames stored in a computer's memory are described and evaluated. Evaluation criteria cover execution time, distribution error and how they perform with two receiver cell models. A hardware bridge PCI to AER for connecting to the convolution chips is presented and evaluated.
