Video Processing Using FPGA Boards

Dear All,

I am doing one project in which i have to take video from 3 camera from different angles and then display them on VGA. The problem is that i am only familiar with Altera DE2 Board which have only one Video in and out port and i have to use 3 cameras for this purpose. So please can any one tell me which board should i use for this purpose.

It is not necessary that the board has 3 ports for video in and out ports but is easy and helpful to do image processing.

Thanks in advance

    If You want to stick with Cyclones, then check out CYclone III Video devkit with EP3C120 on it. If You want Stratix, then check out Stratix video devkit... Basically, You won't find a board with 3 video in ports, so choose a board that has at least two HSMC headers.

    Begin by understanding image compessing techniques, then realisation. You don't need a board for that in a first or second stage - simulating is enough for that.
