Altera 2006年Nios II 嵌入式处理器设计大赛 Set-Top Box Capable of Real-Time Video Processing Second Prize Set-Top Box Capable of Real-Time Video Processing Institution: Xi’an University of Electronic Science and Technology Participants: Fei Xiang, Wen-Bo Ning, and Wei Zhu Instructor: Wan-You Guo Design Introduction The set-top box (STB) played an important role in the early development of digital TV. As the technology develops, digital TV will undoubtedly replace analog TV. This paper describes an FPGA- based STB design capable of real-time video processing. Combining image processing theories and an extraction algorithm, the design implements real-time processing and display, audio/video playback, an e-photo album, and an infrared remote control.……
