The high-speed feature detection is still very demanding for many computer vision applications. In this paper, the Harris and KLT corner detectors are redesigned to reduce the complexity of the algorithm. The complexity of Harris and KLT corner detectors are reduced by using the box kernel, the integral image and efficient non-maximum suppression, achieving complexity reduction by a factor of 8. For the image of size 1000×700, our method costs only 74ms on a commodity CPU with 2GHz and 1GB RAM.
