CNN chip set architectures and the visual mouse
T. Roska · 2002
The cellular neural network (CNN) Universal Machine architecture when implemented in VLSI chips needs special interfaces to provide for efficient system performance both in time (speed) and space (image size). The CNN chip set architectures described solve this problem, including interfacing the possibly analog input sensors and digital output and control. Various forms of CNN Engines are presented embedding CNN chip sets. A new device, the Visual Mouse, a hand held visual supercomputer, is also presented which exploits the genuine features of CNN Engines.
