In DSP projects, it is required to read image files and load them into VHDL implementations of the image processing algorithms for functional simulations. In addition, there are many cases that images are loaded into FPGAs during synthesis for onboard verifications.
This VHDL tutorial is to tell you how to read images in VHDL in a way that the images can be loaded into the block memory of the FPGA during synthesis or simulation.
