ABSTRACT:
An image recognition apparatus which is capable of mounting many function such as an image enhancement and image recognition processes into one chip, for thus processing an image processing algorithm of an image enhancement and recognition in real time by extracting a characteristic of an object, comparing the thusly extracted characteristic with a reference pattern, recognizing an image, thus enhancing an image by using a convolver which is a spatial region filter, and by selectively outputting a data which was obtaining by processing the recognized image data or the image data, providing an image signal receiving and inputting unit, and a memory in a host computer for storing the data which were obtained through an image enhancement and recognition process, whereby the image recognition apparatus according to the present invention does not need a memory having a large capacity. The apparatus includes a bus line connected to the host computer and image receiving unit, respectively, a bus interface unit connected to the host computer for interfacing a data externally inputted or outputted through the bus line, and a correlation unit for subtracting a previously defined template data from an image data from the bus interface unit and for outputting a minimum value when an image data from the bus interface unit is matched with a template data.
