In this paper, a hardware system for sobel edge detection algorithm is designed and simulated for a 128 pixel, 8bit monochrome linescan camera. Edge detection using sobel method with median filter. The length of this gradient is then calculated and normalised to produce a single intensity approximately equal to the sharpness of the edge at that position. The roberts operator performs an easy, fast to calculate, 2d special gradient activity on a picture. Many different edge detectors were used in edge detection.
