Parallella Community

Hi,

i have read that a lot of people here are interested in machine vision. What would be the best way to hook up a action cam (GoPro) to the parallella in order to do some real-time vision/video-stream processing? Directly in FPGA? Maybe with some FPGA-preprocessing?

Is anyone working on a "GoPro"-Interface?

However one of the key features I would like to make here, is that unlike the ports on the Power Pec which are designed to inteface with the Zynq/Arm peripherals, the intention for Ziports here is to integrate directly into the epiphany cores. By that I mean the data/information flowing too and from Ziports should have the lowest possible latency (and the widest bandwidth) to the epiphany cores as is possible with the current design. This isn't totally direct of course as it is traversing through the Zynq's PL and then the epiphany HDL implementation (also insides the Zynq's gate fabric) but it is the closest we can get with what we have here.
