Honored Contributori've a question for you about your por ref plat.
the exe file at the bottom of the page, is a kind of "filling system" where the user can personalize his own system doing the appropriate connection?
let me explain my project.
a cmos camera, i2c\sccb\ interface, is connected to proto1 block by a daughter board.
using the altera developmenat board ep2c35, fpga cyclone ii, i must catch pixels and whole frames from that camera using nios ii and quartus ii software.
my first problem is how to read datas from camera because i tried to use pios for doing this after have seen the templates files on nios ii software. i thougt that the method used to catch the switches status was the right way for catching datas from an external peripheral like a camera,so pios should be ok. but, this solution wasn't right.
can you explain me,what have i to use?
on while i will read your exe file. i wanna ask you this first because if this is not the right solution for my project i try to find other infos. http://forum.niosforum.com/work2/style_emoticons/<#emo_dir#>/unsure.gif
many thanks.

There were two peripherals custom created to interface to the Camera. The first is the Camera Slave. It interfaces to the camera and captures the pixel data from the camera into an internal fifo buffer. The fifo output is presented to the sopc system in the form of a memory mapped register. Any avalon master can read this register and thus gather the pixel data. This master could be a Nios II processor or any other avalon master. We also created the Camera Master Peripheral. This peripheral is connected to the camera slave. It reads the pixel data from the camera slave's data register and writes it to a frame buffer in memory. In this way an entire image 640x480 is written into a frame buffer in memory. Please read the data sheets for the camera master and slave. The camera master provides an extremely efficient way of moving the image data into a frame buffer in memory. Because of this it can support much higher resolution images than we are currently doing so in the demos. Hope this helps Steven
