A system is disclosed. An input interface is configured to receive pixel data from two or more images. A pixel handling processor disposed on the substrate is configured to convert the pixel data into depth and intensity pixel data. In some embodiments, a foreground detector processor disposed on the substrate is configured to classify pixels as background or not background. In some embodiments, a projection generator disposed on the substrate is configured to generate a projection in space of the depth and intensity pixel data.

Integrated image processor

An integrated image processor implemented on a substrate is disclosed. An input interface is configured to receive pixel data from two or more images. A pixel handling processor disposed on the substrate is configured to convert the pixel data into depth and intensity pixel data. In some embodiments, a foreground detector processor disposed on the substrate is configured to classify pixels as background or not background. In some embodiments, a projection generator disposed on the substrate is configured to generate a projection in space of the depth and intensity pixel data.

A time-multiplexed data bus driver circuit includes a plurality of combinatorial circuits, each of the circuits forming a logic combination of a datum value, a datum enable signal and a datum timeslot signal, the plurality of circuits producing a plurality of output signals based thereon, and a wired-OR junction producing a logic OR combination of the plurality of output signals representing a time-multiplexed data stream. Preferably, for each of the combinatorial circuits the enable signal, the timeslot signal and the datum signal (and preferably also a clock signal) are combined in an AND function to produce a gating signal for an active-low datum value, one selected active-low datum value being gated onto the wired-OR junction at a given timeslot when enabled. The common time-multiplexed data channel at the wired-OR junction has a pre-charge circuit for biasing the junction to a positive or ground voltage, thereby representing in an un-driven state a respective logic 1 or 0.

Distributed time-multiplexed bus architecture and emulation apparatus

A parallel processor comprised of a plurality of processing nodes (10), each node including a processor (100-114) and a memory (116). Each processor includes means (100, 102) for executing instructions, logic means (114) connected to the memory for interfacing the processor with the memory and means (112) for internode communication. The internode communication means (112) connect the nodes to form a first array (8) of order n having a hypercube topology. A second array (21) of order n having nodes (22) connected together in a hypercube topology is interconnected with the first array to form an order n+l array. The order n+l array is made up of the first and second arrays of order n, such that a parallel processor system may be structured with any number of processors that is a power of two. A set of I/O processors (24) are connected to the nodes of the arrays (8, 21) by means of I/O channels (106). The means for internode communication (112) comprises a serial data channel driven by a clock that is common to all of the nodes.
