Abstract

An integrated development board with several different technologies can be useful in many areas. Especially in education, these platforms can have huge advantages. Both course-specific practical courses and interdisciplinary courses can benefit from it. The "De Nayer Instituut", an associated partner of the K. U. Leuven located in Sint- Katelijne-Waver (Belgium), in cooperation with IWT and some industrial partners, developed such a system. It consists out of two boards; an engine-board with processing units and a base-board containing several interfaces. This paper describes the implementation of a multifunctional digital embedded camera platform currently used in education.
