* Polar Magnitude and Angle (PMA): is a block in PVP available in ADSP-BF609. If the bits per sample is 32, the input should be the port 2 output of the PMA block of the PVP. The lower 16 bits contain the gradient magnitude and the upper 16 bits contain the gradient angle. If the bits per sample is 16, the lower 11 bits contain the gradient magnitude and upper 5 bits contain the gradient angle information. Please refer to Hardware Reference Manual of ADSP-BF609 for more detail.
Product Details
The Blackfin HOG SVM Detector is a Software Module meant for computer vision applications targeting Blackfin family of processors. The Blackfin HOG SVM Detector comes with an optimized implementation of Histogram of Oriented Gradients (HOG) and Support Vector Machine (SVM) classifier. This Software Module can be used for detection of various objects such as people, pets, cars etc in a variety of applications.
The Blackfin HOG SVM Detector module from ADI has been highly optimized to run on the Analog Devices’ Blackfin processor family. It is a self-contained software module based on an ADI proprietary design and has been tested with a variety of images. The Blackfin HOG SVM Detector module is fully re-entrant and multi-instance capable, and comes with an intuitive API which makes it easy for system integration.
Licensing

- Performance is measured on the following processors using ADI CrossCore® Embedded Studio 2.0.0 tool-chain
- ADSP-BF609 : CCLK = 500 MHz, SCLK = 250 MHz
- ADSP-BF707 : CCLK = 384 MHz, SCLK = 192 MHz
- Instruction cache and MDMA enabled. Data Cache is enabled on Bank A.
- MIPS is calculated for a video of 720x480 resolution @ 30 fps
- On ADSP-BF609 1-D Gradient and PMA computation is performed using PVP
- “Data RAM” for one instance includes, scratch and state memory but excludes input/output buffers
