Abstract
This paper presents an extremely high density and lightweight image processing system being designed at Georgia Tech. The system consists of two layers. The upper layer includes a focal plane array of thin-film GaAs detectors that are integrated directly on top of an array of Si-based SIMD processors. The lower layer consists of an array of more powerful MIMD processors connected in a wormhole routed two dimensional mesh. The two layers are interconnected via though-wafer optical interconnects using integrated InGaAsP devices.
