After about 8 months part-time development, after many VHDL-related headache, after lots of failures, after few successful moments, after anger, after surpises and finally with a big portion of luck I am today very proud to annouce the first working proof-of-concept for live stereoscopic vision using two CMOS camera modules, the Zeiss Cinemizer Plus video eyewear and of cause with my DIY side-by-side encoder.

It has been a while since my last posting on this topic. In the meantime I made significant progress as you can see here:

Another XMOS robot I have found, made by people at University of Denver.

Demonstration of XMOS real-time ability. This test is running 8 independent tasks: gps task, ultra-sonic task, compass task, wifi receive task, wifi transmit task, pwm output task, behavior task, status led task:
