  1. Image Processing for Remote Sensing Matthew E. Nelson Joseph Coleman CprE 583

  2. ImaP-RS One method for detecting plant health is to look in the Near Infra-red band (700 ~ 1000 nm). A camera system was developed by the SSCL for this type of remote sensing application. This project continued to improve the efficiency and functionality of the system by moving to a FPGA based system

  3. ImaP-RS Goals • Implement a working Linux kernel on the ML507 with USB Support • Cross Compile existing tools to the PowerPC architecture the ML507 uses • gPhoto2 • libgphoto2 • Implement a co-processor design to handle the image processing

  4. ImaP-RS Linux on the ML507 • Xilinx provides a reference base system for installing a Linux kernel on the ML507 • Limited functionality, but good starting point • USB is not enabled in the base system • ML507 Cypress CY7C67300 chipset • NOT supported by Linux  • Plan B • Digilent SMSC EVB-USB3300-XLX Daughter board • It is supported by Linux 

  5. ImaP-RS Demo – Booting Linux on the ML507

  6. ImaP-RS USB on the ML507

  7. ImaP-RS USB on the ML507

  8. ImaP-RS Cross Compiling the Tools • Two software packages are critical for the communication between the Canon 5D and Linux • libgphoto • Provides camera interface libraries • gphoto • Provides command line tools libexif optional libgphoto2 libusb Required for USB cameras libpopt gphoto2

  9. ImaP-RS Cross Compiling the software • Cross Compiling libgphoto2 and gPhoto2 proved to be more difficult than originally planned • ELDK would not compile libgphoto2 • Would not compile against a library it had, others trying to compile reported similar problems, either ELDK or libgphoto2 problem • In addition, one other software package would be helpful • UFRaw • Can convert from Canon’s RAW format to PNG or TIFF • Can also do some limited image manipulation • This was also difficult to cross compile due to a number of dependencies required

  10. ImaP-RS Image Processing • When gPhoto is in place, we can obtain images directly from the Canon 5D • We can also send commands to the camera for camera settings and to trigger a photograph • Images will be stored on a mounted CF Card

  11. ImaP-RS Image Processing • Considerations • File Formats • Selection Process • Results • Connectivity • Simulink

  12. ImaP-RS Image Processing Considerations • Need to get pictures off of flash drive in camera • Cannot remove the flash drive because of application environment (tethered balloon at ~50-500 ft. • Need high reliability and scripting capabilities to facilitate autonomous action • Onboard image processing for immediate data availability • Low power consumption for extended sessions

  13. ImaP-RS Canon 5D Supported Image File Formats: • RAW • TIFF • JPEG UFRaw Supported Image File Formats: • PNG • TIFF • JPEG MatlabImread( ) Supported Image File Formats: • BMP • JPEG • PNG • TIFF • GIF • Etc.

  14. ImaP-RS Format Selection Criteria: • Non-compressed for intuitive pixel-based processing • Compatible with all platforms • Open standard for GPS information insertion later

  15. ImaP-RS Results: • TIFF selected for image format • FPGA to be used for any filter operations • Power PC running Linux to be used for any Matlab serial image functions (loading image, flattening, etc.) • USB interface to Canon EOS 5D • Simulink to be used with Xilinx System Generator (sysgen) for DSP

  16. ImaP-RS Dataflow Diagram – Hardware • Standalone ML507 does not support USB host mode • Camera does not support USB mass storage device mode Linux Xilinx custom kernel version 2.6.30 ML507Power PC Canon EOS 5D CF Camera Memory (kept empty) Digilent USB Daughterboard Host Device 8-bit Data Bus USB

  17. ImaP-RS Dataflow Diagram – Software Side Linux Xilinx custom kernel version 2.6.30 RAM GPhoto C-Program Writes Imread( ) Rgb2gray( ) ML507Power PC Notify FPGA Execution Control Trigger HD Imwrite( ) CF ML507 Memory

  18. ImaP-RS • Grayscale Image Creation Steps: • Imread( ) parses file and creates a 3D matrix • Rgb2gray( ) flattens the image to 2D • Grayscale Intensity = 0.2989 * R + 0.5870 * G + 0.1140 * B Rgb2gray( ) 2D Grayscale Image Data Array 3D Truecolor Image Data Array

  19. ImaP-RS Simulink with Xilinx Sysgen for DSP benefits: • Built in simulink blocks for FIR filters, FFTs, error correction, arithmetic, memory access (RAM, etc.) & digital logic • Automatic VHDL code generation for specific Xilinx IP cores • Hardware co-simulation

  20. ImaP-RS

  21. ImaP-RS Xilinx FPGA boundaries in Sysgen

  22. ImaP-RS Problems • Non-linux supported USB chipset on the ML507 • Issue with cross compiling libgphoto • Xilinx Sysgen for DSP availability • Lack of documentation • Too much documentation • Closed protocol on Canon Cameras

  23. ImaP-RS Future work • We plan to continue this work • Finish working on getting the camera talking to the FPGA • Integrate image processing into the ML507 board • Fine tune settings

  24. ImaP-RS Thank you Any Questions?
