CLAHE HLS implementation on Zynq SoC FPGA

Infrared (IR) imaging is pivotal for military applications, facilitating detection in low-light scenarios. However, conventional IR images often suffer from contrast issues, particularly when displaying high and low-temperature objects in the same scene. This leads to a loss of contrast in the whole...
