AB  - This work presents the implementation of a matching-based motion estimation 
      sensor on a Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) and NIOS II microprocessor 
      applying a C to Hardware (C2H) acceleration paradigm. The design, which involves 
      several matching algorithms, is mapped using Very Large Scale Integration (VLSI) 
      technology. These algorithms, as well as the hardware implementation, are 
      presented here together with an extensive analysis of the resources needed and 
      the throughput obtained. The developed low-cost system is practical for real-time 
      throughput and reduced power consumption and is useful in robotic applications, 
      such as tracking, navigation using an unmanned vehicle, or as part of a more 
      complex system.
