Sobel Edge Detection Using FPGA

Abstract—A comprehensive method of implementation of the Sobel edge detection algorithm for low power consumption and fast performanceusing FPGA has been presented in this paper. The image pixel values are sent to the FPFA from PC through serial communication. MATLAB GUI is used to interface PC and FPGA. The image pixels are converted to binary format.
