Digital signal processing capabilities of DE2-115

Hello,

Long time ago i had a similar problem with my engineering project.

I received a title and did not know what to do with it, it ended up well anyway.

If you google your subject, you will end up with a list of books.

First thing to do: study literature to see what your ecosystem looks like.

http://www.springer.com/us/book/9783540726135 can be interesting.

In your project book: first thing is to give overview of the technology, and the possible alternatives, in this case there a competition between dedicated DSP processors and FPGA's, what are the advantage of both technologies and what to use when. What is the current evolution towards cpu-fpga based solutions doing (soc things) with the ecosystem?

Then you can decide to build a current application: for example, take a DE2-115, attach a microphone to the thing and decide to build something practical. Can you build something that can count the number of cars passing through a street, is it possible to determine the difference between cars, bikes and trucks?

Best Regards,

Johi
