Design Project • Students work on a project throughout the course • For the project students will: • Choose a real-time DSP project, either self generated or ideas from the professor • Follow the software life cycle • Write reports documenting progress at each stage • Produce a working real-time DSP based device
Example Project: Overview • Simple project for first semester with small class • Develop a Visual Basic application to control the Imaging Development Kit (IDK) • Image processing includes the following functions: • Sobel • Threshold • Correlation • Dilate • Erode • Median • Noise
Example Project: Requirements Analysis and Specifications • Identified requirements for user interface and processing to be performed (simplified) • Select different processing for data displayed on the monitor • Display raw data sample on the computer • Display transformed data sample on the computer
Example Project: System Context Diagram Video Camera Video Input Video Transformation System User Display Output Video Output Video Display Monitor User Monitor Mouse Input Keyboard Input Mouse Keyboard
Example Project: Integrated Task Structure, Target Video Board Video Capture Transform Video Display Streaming video Video Board Streaming trans. video Trans. data request Data capture request Control Monitor User Interface User commands Captured data Transformed data User commands
Example Project: Integrated Task Structure, Host • Event driven program (mouse clicks, menu selections, etc.) • Design different from task structure • Written in Visual Basic • Requirements • Send user commands to target • Receive data from target as requested • Display data from target • Were not able to display on host because of slow transfer rate over parallel port
Real-Time DSP Course Needs • Hardware • DSK, EVM, Other • Software • CCS, Visual Basic (or Visual C++, Other OLE) • Course material • Design Process • RTOS Basics - Material and Labs
Conclusion • Use DSP/BIOS II in your next application • Develop your own course in real-time system development or add it to an existing course • Visit website and download DSP/BIOS II and RTDX laboratory assignments now • http://www.oc.edu/faculty/david.waldo/projects/nsfccli/nsfccli.html • Use them to learn about DSP/BIOS II or use them in your class • This material is based upon work supported by the National Science Foundation under Grant No. 9952720
