    one way: show the image on a VGA monitor. You have to design a VGA controller with FPGA. An alternative way is to send the image to a PC via USB and save it as a bmp file.

    probably you have the image stored in a memory. You can send this information to a computer using a FT232H chip. It's very easy to use.
