Abstract

<p>Particle filter is one promising method to estimate the internal states in dynamical systems, and can be used for various applications such as visual tracking and mobile-robot localization. The major drawback of particle filter is its large computational amount, which causes long computational-time and large power-consumption. In order to solve this problem, this paper proposes an Field-Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) platform for particle filter. The platform is designed using the OpenCL-based design tool that allows users to develop using a high-level programming language based on C and to change designs easily for various applications. The implementation results demonstrate the proposed FPGA implementation is 106 times faster than the CPU one, and the power-delay product of the FPGA implementation is 1.1% of the CPU one. Moreover, implementations for three different systems are shown to demonstrate flexibility of the proposed platform.</p>
