Real time FPGA implementation of Full Search video stabilization method

Abstract

Full Search video stabilization method is implemented on FPGA to realize its real time performance. Also, the method is implemented and tested in MATLAB. FPGA results are compared with MATLAB's to see the accuracy performance. The input video is PAL which frame period is 40 ms. The FPGA implementation is capable of producing new stabilization data at every PAL frame which allows the implementation to be classified as real time. Simulation and hardware tests show that FPGA implementation can reach the MATLAB accuracy performance.
