Abstract
An image processing architecture that is based on three-dimensional (3-D) VLSI and consists of optically connected layers is proposed. In 3-D VLSI, the optical interconnection is not essentially different from the metal interconnection, but it can easily propagate the data on a plane. The isotropic radiation of the light is algebraically formulated as the isotropic propagation of data, and an efficient template matching algorithm that can be pipelined on multiple devices is proposed.
