Abstract: Edge detection is one of the most important stages in image processing. The Canny edge detection algorithm is most widely used edge detection algorithm because of it advantages. In this paper we present canny edge detection algorithm implemented on Spartan 3E FPGA and developed VGA interfacing for displaying images on the screen. In this paper we have taken 128×128 Image and displayed same on the monitor through FPGA.
Keywords: Block Memory, Canny, FPGA, VGA Interface.
