Low-level FPGA / D8M / OV8865 interfacing with PC throught USB.

IMPORTANT: This project is now discontinued and superseed by Camera Vision 2 (https://github.com/electro-logic/CameraVision2)

Requirements:

• Microsoft Visual Studio 2017 (.NET 4.5)
• Intel Quartus Prime 17

Supported Hardware:

• Terasic DE0-Nano
• Terasic D8M

Notes:

Power consumption of DE0-Nano with D8M connected throught USB: 0.35A

Quick start:

1. Connect D8M into GPIO0 of DE0-Nano like shown into images into \doc folder
2. Connect DE0-Nano to PC with USB cable bundled
3. Load with Quartus Programmer \eda\de0-nano\output_files\DE0_NANO_D8M.sof into DE0-Nano
4. Wait that LED0 turn on and launch \sw\CameraVision\CameraVision\bin\Release\CameraVision.exe
5. Press Update into Image panel to take a new image

F.A.Q.

Q) When I launch CameraVision.exe image is corrupted.

A) Try to press KEY0 on DE0-NANO to reset the system and try again to launch the software. Try changing resolution (avoid binning) just after programming and before acquiring images.
