In this research, we discuss a technological platform in which graphics processing units GPUs, webcams and video, CUDA and free software are used for the treatment of real-time images, for this purpose we describe test software for the application of 3 types of treatment: 3D effect, skin detection and edge detection (Sobel). The results indicate that the higher the complexity level of the effect applied to the image, the higher the percentage of use of the GPUs used: 3D effect (81% of use), edge detection (31% of use) and skin detection (22 %), these values improve significantly this process.</p>}, number={3}, journal={International Journal of Combinatorial Optimization Problems and Informatics}, author={Hernández Aguilar, Alberto and Bonilla-Robles, Juan Carlos and Zavala Díaz, José C. and Ochoa, Alberto}, year={2019}, month={Mar.}, pages={33–49} }
