Hi everyone.
I have a project where my team has to grab images from a camera (USB) and then use motion detection to identify the coordinates of the moving object and we have to implement this on a Zedboard. Our current plan is to use OpenCV to grab the image and then use the programmable logic to implement the motion detection algorithm.
We are having trouble with trying to install Linux on the Zedboard . My question is do we need Linux on the pc to program the zedboard (to load linux into the zedboard). I tried looking at this Digilent guide
https://www.digilentinc.com/Data/Products/EMBEDDED-LINUX/ZedBoard_GSwEL_Guide.pdf
and this says that we need the ARM tools for Xilinx and here they use the "make ARCH=arm digilent_zed_defconfig"
so as far as I know we would need Linux for this on the PC right?
and also this guide http://svenand.blogdrive.com/archive/199.html#.VaFgPPlAqB1 does not do any such thing at all and does some simple steps. How is that possible? Can anyone please give me some pointers as to where I should start... and whether most I would need to install Vivado and Xilinx SDK tools on a Linux machine to do any sort of programming in this case (because I am using windows).
Thank you!!
