Abstract :
The aim of this paper is to present a device with Linux on FPGA (Field-Programmable Gate Array) which can make image acquisition from cameras. The first challenge is to make the possibility to run Linux on an FPGA. First it´s needed to create a microprocessor architecture on FPGA and then to install the Linux system on a flash memory. The chosen microprocessor was the OpenRISC processor and the Linux distribution is the standard command line Linux kernel. The chosen cameras were some IP (Internet Protocol) cameras from where the device could make image acquisition and save the images on the flash drive. Than from network the images can be retrieved and copied on another device.
