Did you consider using camera CPU to control H-bridges? With 10369 board you can use any of i2c or usb to control the motors. There are several GP I/O going directly to the FPGA available, so you can flip those bits by software initially and then add some FPGA module (i.e. PWM) so these outputs will be run w/o CPU overhead.
It is also possible to design custom extension board to sit right on the 10353 board - in that case you have all the 12 FPGA I/O available (still it is better leave 2 of them for i2c that is used to read board identification EEPROM
We have some un-populated 10369 boards that you may use for prototyping.--Andrey.filippov 17:47, 12 March 2009 (CDT)
