Image processing semiconductor device and image processing device
Provided is an image processing device capable of an image processing with using a general-purpose image processing hardware in accordance with video input without mediation of a CPU. The image processing device includes: a storage medium for storing an image data acquired by video inputting unit for acquiring video images; a CPU for a general processing; image processing unit for processing the image data stored in the storage medium; setting unit for determining a processing content of the image processing unit; a command list indicating an order of setting and activating the image processing unit; and command writing unit for setting and activating the image processing unit based on the command list in synchronization with input of the image data from the video inputting unit without mediation of the CPU.
1. An image processing semiconductor device comprising:
a central processing unit (CPU);
an image processing circuit configured to process video image data acquired by a video inputting circuit and stored in a storage medium; and
a command writing circuit configured to activate the image processing circuit in response to receiving a notification from the video inputting circuit that the acquisition of the video image data is complete,
wherein the CPU does not receive the notification from the video inputting circuit that the acquisition of the video image data is complete.
2. An image processing device comprising:
a storage medium configured to store video image data acquired by a video inputting circuit;
a central processing unit (CPU);
an image processing circuit configured to process the video image data stored in the storage medium, the image processing circuit including a setting circuit configured to determine a processing content of the image processing circuit; and
a command writing circuit configured to set and activate the image processing circuit based on a synchronization signal, received from the video inputting circuit, indicating that the acquisition of the video image data is complete,
wherein the CPU does not receive the synchronization signal from the video inputting circuit indicating that the acquisition of the video image data is complete.
