This paper presents an approach to detect skin with taking 16 by 16 pixels as the unit for videos that use Local Pixel Wise Skin Detection algorithm, named LPSD. It reliably recognizes and marks skin for each 16 by 16 pixels in the video, based on Field-Programmable Gate Array(FPGA). A special memory and two special counters reduces storage resource utilization caused by the restore all pixels information in 16 by 16 area. The algorithm could mark the skin area pixel by pixel without restoring 16 by 16 pixels each time. For the VGA standard image, 640 by 480 pixels, this algorithm uses 167,744 memory bits totally.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
