>> What other chips have image sensor interfaces? I went to a recent TI "MCU Day" presentation, where the mentioned the "leopard Board" for playing with image/video sensing. This is an open source (like BeagleBoard) system based on TI's arm8 OMAP applications processors. While it seems incredibly cheap for what you get, it's well above the price tag you're trying to hit. But it might have some useful ideas... http://designsomething.org/leopardboard/default.aspx BillW -- http://www.piclist.com PIC/SX FAQ & list archive View/change your membership options at http://mailman.mit.edu/mailman/listinfo/piclist
