A Real-time Location Algorithm for Critical Points Based on TMS320C6678

This paper analyzes the importance of real-time identification of key parts of non-cooperative targets in military applications, and proposes the shortcomings of current target detection algorithms, and a real-time localization algorithm for target points based on TMS320C6678 parallel processing. The algorithm firstly locates the approximate position of the target by downsampling and horizontal vertical projection of the original image, then locates the target key points by polar coordinate transformation and target edge curvature solution, and combines the multi-core of TMS320C6678 DSP to optimize the algorithm. Finally, the algorithm is parallel optimized on the TMS320C6678 multi-core DSP hardware platform, which can accurately locate the target parts within 5ms.
