Modifying XAPP495 for RGB to YUV conversion

[M.Saad Ikram]

Hi, I successfully implemented XAPP495 at Atlys spartan 6... However... I need to modify the incoming video signal.... I need to convert it to YUV.....

In simple words... I need to convert a RGB coming video to YUV... and briefly I need the U part only for face detection because that is what I am trying to do..

Anyone knowing which files to modify in order get a YUV output instead of RGB/.;;...

In other words,.... I need Red minus(-) Green........ Then if answer is greater than 20 and less than 74.... make those pixels as 1... and all others as 0....

The information given here might be insufficient... Do let me know if want me to elaborate it more... Thank you very much

Hi @M.Saad Ikram,

I am glad to hear that you were able to get the XAPP495 project working. Unfortunately, I do not have any experience with the XAPP495 and would not be able to give you helpful input. I did find a xilinx forum here that has some information about altering the pixels on the spartan 6 with the XAPP495 that looks to be helpful.

cheers,

Jon
