GPU VSIPL is an implementation of Vector Signal Image Processing Library that targets Graphics Processing Units (GPUs) supporting NVIDIA’s CUDA platform. By leveraging processors capable of 900 GFLOP/s or more, your application may achieve considerable speedup without any specialized development for GPUs. Our range-Doppler map application achieved a 75x speedup on the GPU simply by linking it with GPU VSIPL.
