Hi Petrov,

But that board has Santa Cruz interface.

So in general the trdb_dc2 (http://www.terasic.com.tw/cgi-bin/page/archive.pl?language=english&categoryno=39&no=50) board (connected to DE2 Board through GPIO), but with two cameras, it is what I'm looking for.

The Santa Cruz interface is not directly compatible with the DE2 GPIO interfaces. I am not aware of ready-made conversion boards from GPIO to Santa Cruz. One option would be to build/wire the circuit yourself.

DE2 has two GPIO's so an other option is to add two daughter boards like TRDB_DC2 or similar.
