Opportunities, Challenges and Solutions for Intelligent CMOS Sensors and Vision Systems on Chip

Slide da Apresentação (PDF) New

Resumo
CMOS technologies enable on-chip embedding of optical sensors with data conversion and processing circuitry, thus making possible to incorporate intelligence into imagers and eventually to build complete vision systems in the form of CMOS chips. To take full advantage of the potentials offered by CMOS, innovative solutions are required at many different levels: pixel design, sensor architecture, processor architecture, system architecture, etc. This talk overviews some of the most important related challenges and describes solutions for them. Different demonstrations are included: from the emulation of the retina signal processing channels to the tracking of moving objects, the decoding of information at very high speed, the guidance of autonomous vehicles, etc.

Biografia Resumida
Ángel Rodríguez-Vázquez (Fellow, IEEE) is a Professor of Electronics at the Department of Electronics and Electromagnetism, University of Seville, Seville, Spain. He is also a member of the research staff of the Institute of Microelectronics of Seville Centro Nacional de Microelectrónica (IMSECNM) where he is heading a research group on Analog and Mixed-Signal Integrated Circuits. His research interests are in the design of analog interfaces for mixed-signal circuits, CMOS imagers and vision chips, telecom circuits, neuro-fuzzy controllers, symbolic analysis of analog integrated circuits, and optimization of analog integrated circuits. In these fields, he has published 5 books, 23 book chapters in other books, around 100 journal papers, and more than 250 conference papers. Dr. Rodríguez-Vázquez served as an Associate Editor of the IEEE TRANSACTIONS ON CIRCUITS AND SYSTEMS-I, FUNDAMENTAL THEORY AND APPLICATIONS (IEEE TCAS-I) from 1993 to 1995, as Guest Editor of the IEEE TCAS I special issues on Low-Voltage and Low-Power Analog and Mixed-Signal Circuits and Systems (1995) and Bio-Inspired Processors and Cellular Neural Networks for Vision (1999), as Guest Editor of the IEEE TCAS-II special issue on Advances in Nonlinear Electronic Circuits (1999), and as chair of the IEEE Circuits and Ssytems Analog Signal Processing Committee (1996). Currently, he is an Associate Editor for IEEE TRANSACTIONS ON CIRCUITS AND SYSTEMS-II. He was corecipient of the 1995 Guillemin-Cauer award of the IEEE Circuits and Systems Society, the best paper award of the 1995 European Conference on Circuit Theory and Design, and the 1999 best paper award of the International Journal on Circuit Theory and Applications. In 1992 he received also the young scientist award of the Seville Academy of Science.
