How to stream video (and process) into FPGA

Its a part of my theses.

My thesis advisor has an idea for an algorithm and we want to do a proof of concept.

I am a board design engineer at my work. I usually do my own electrical schematics and layout of multiple layers (usually up to 8 layers but a few times 12 were it was needed).

If needed, i will outsource the layout to a layout company.

I program the FPGA on the boards, as well as the micro-controller.

I admit i have little experience with high speed designs, and little experience with camera handling and interface. i want to get into that.

I would really love just to plug the camera to a board ( a small compact board :) ) and just write the verilog code to do what i want.

Ok so i will try and find a camera to suite my needs which uses CameraLink interface
