Advances in FPGA technology have dramatically increased the use of FPGAs for computer vision applications.The primary task for development of such FPGAs based systems is the interfacing of the analog camera with FPGA board.This paper describes the design and implementation of camera interface module required for connecting analog camera with Xilinx ML510 (Virtex-5 FXT) FPGA board having no video input port.Digilent VDEC1 video daughter card is used for digitizing the analog video into digital form.The necessary control logics for video acquisition and video display are designed using VHDL and Verilog, simulated in ModelSim, and synthesized using Xilinx ISE 12.1.Designed and implemented interfaces provide the real-time video acquisition and display.
