This paper presents the design and evaluation of the stream processing implementation of the Integral Image algorithm. The Integral Image is a key component of many image processing algorithms in particular the Haar-like feature based systems. Modern GPUs provide a large number of processors with a peak floating point performance that is significantly higher than current general CPUs. This results in significant performance improvement when the Integral Image calculation for large input images is offloaded onto the GPU of the system.
