Use two pmod cameras on zedboard

I'm building stereoscopic applications on FPGA and using a zedboard as development board.
I want to use two cameras mt9d111 like this one:

I have a question regarding pmods, for this kind of sensor i need at least 12 pins for each camera, and there are just 20 GPIO available in the (non differential) pmods.

Is there a way to use at the same time a couple of these sensors?

The differential Pmods can be used as single-ended as well without issue. Each 2x6 Pmod provides access to 8 I/Os. If you need 24 I/Os total, then you could have enough I/Os in 3 Pmods. There is no electrical issue using multiple Pmods simultaneously. You will need to build your IP in the design with proper timing and location constraints to see if your IP will fit and meet timing.

i was not sure about the differential, this solves my doubt, thank you!

Was you successful with implementing IP for this case?
I'm also need such component and choose whether to do it myself or find something ready.
