Abstract

With the increasingly serious haze disaster, the development of dehazing technology is highly concerned. But the current software dehazing algorithm suffers from too high computational complexity. We selects the algorithm based on dark channel prior with sky preservation [1] as the base software algorithm, and a hardware accelerator is designed to simplify the data transmission process and optimize the data processing. The whole operation simulation of the accelerator is realized in NC-Verilog hardware design environment. The accelerator can achieve 75fps@640x480 video dehazing under 0.18 mu m CMOS technology. It can be applied to driving assistance and surveillance system.
