Abstract
The XETAL chip by Philips Electronics is a low-cost hardware-solution for image processing on pixel level. The architecture of XETAL focuses on a low-energy environment and it is therefore highly suited for integration into mobile vision and intelligent cameras. While hardware support for 2D-vision has reached the level of affordable state-of-the-art technology by thorough research, also real-time 3D-vision by stereo, based on the support by a low-cost and low-energy hardware, appears to be able to reach this level soon.
