Abstract: In this study a parallel algorithm and its implementation on hardware platform for 2D gray-level morphological dilation/erosion using rectangular structuring element are presented. A pipelined architecture for morphological opening/closing and open-close filter is designed exploiting inter-operator parallelism among dilation/erosion operator. The proposed parallel algorithm processes pixel onstream resulting in low memory utilization. In addition, it reduces computational time with respect to image dimension. The architecture provides real-time performance for processing large-sized structuring elements on high-resolution images. Additionally, it outperforms the processing capabilities of existing delay-line-based architecture, systolic array architecture and parallel implementation in terms of frame rate. It has been observed that the proposed method achieves a maximum speedup by a factor of two and four to compute opening/closing and open-close filter compared to the equivalent non-pipelined implementation. Experimental results show that the architecture for open-close filter is able to achieve about 591 frames per second on $$566\times 566$$ images using $$9\times 9$$ rectangular structuring elements.
