DETAILED DESCRIPTION
Introduction:
Graphic processing or computation of digital graphic data requires analytical
as well as quantitative details of the object to be displayed. It needs high
amount data computation capacity to generate the display frame from
mathematical algorithms and models. A graphic processing device is
expected to perform these heavy data computations and generates the video
output in displayable format.
Detailed design:
The graphic processing device is designed around an FPGA (Field
Programmable Gate Array).(Refer fig 1) It receives the information to be
displayed from the data processing device which can be internal to the FPGA
or external. It uses shared resources with data processing device to exchange
communication. A dual port static random access memory is used for this
purpose.
All the common primitives which are essential for 2-dimensional synthetic
graphic generation are analyzed. These primitives include lines, polygons,
circles, circle derivatives and conic sections. Mathematical algorithm is
adopted for all the shapes in a computational prospective.
A data exchange protocol is designed to facilitate the communication between
data processing device and graphic processing device. (Refer fig 2) All the
global information is stored in a series of configurable memory regions. This
information can be customized as per the graphic processing requirements.
The communication will be initiated by the data processing device by
providing necessary digital information to display at a configurable memory
Annexure‐II
region. Graphic processing devices respond by reading the data and
acknowledging the data processing device.
Data received by the graphic processing device further analyzed to determine
the number of objects to be displayed and co-ordinates of the each object as
per a fixed reference point on the screen.
All the graphic data will be computed using computational algorithms. Further
the computed data will be converted into a stream of image frames (video
signal) which can be received by any standalone display device. (Refer fig 3)
