1 April 1998Real-time morphological target recognition processor by using one liquid crystal display (LCD) panel
In this paper, we develop an incoherent optical correlator based morphological target recognition processor by using a SHARP QA-1200 8.4' active matrix TFT liquid crystal display (LCD) panel as two real-time spatial light modulators (SLM) for both the input and the reference image. The working principle and the structure design of the processor are illustrated. Some practical difficulties when using the LCD panel have been solved. Experimental results are given.
