Human Following Robot with implementation of FPGA`s

I am going to enter my last year of Electronic Engineering, so for our final year projects, we submitted proposals. First our project was Human Following Robot using 'GPS & Xbee', by subtraction of frames we would have a lock-on on our user and know his position & then follow him one or many units would be placed on the robot and a single unit would be put in the pocket of the user, but anyhow it was rejected, now our teachers have said to us research on making a "Human Following Robot with Image Processing using FPGA`s", I have searched and have found that LOGi FPGA is available for use with either Raspberry Pi and BeagleBone. So my main question is that is this project feasible can it be made, and can Kinect or other cameras be interfaced with the LOGi i have seen only the LOGi cams having model no. OV---, can other cameras be also interfaced with it. Thanks

    Since you are an aspiring Electronic Engineer I would expect you to approach this project the right way: 1) Specify what you want to do (the "requirements") 2) Work out how to do it in fairly abstract…

    I think you would do far better to dump the pi and use an Arduino for the robot. The FPGA in the LogiPi is a Xilinx XC6SLX9-2TQG144 - it's a reasonable FPGA but you need to estimate the hardware requirements…

    A team of six for a year is enough effort to do some real work - at least one of you and probably three of you need to get good at FPGA stuff. A project of this size should not be looking at hobby stuff…

    Hello Sir I hope you are in fine and in best of health, tomorrow we are going to defend this project, I will tell them what I learned over here try to impress the teachers in order to get acceptance of this project, If it does get accepted I am going to be asking questions so I need your help.
