Frame Grabber using FPGA

Hello, 

 

I have decided to use c3088 camera which uses ov6620 from Omnivision on my project. I would like to grab 2 frames into the FPGA. 

 

The camera has VSYNC, HREF, PCLK AND 8 bit for each pixel data. 

VSYNC tells us the start of a new frame, HREF tells us the start of new line while PCLK tells us a new pixel coming in. 

 

The camera provides 352x292 pixel but I'm only interested in the 1st 50x50 of the frame in the upper left corner. 

 

I would like to save the array of data into the SDR SDRAM. 

 

I've read some other project which is somewhat similar to mine. 

 

The fella build a component to receive the data from the camera in vhd and then add that component into sopc builder. 

 

I've also build component that would able to extract the first 50x50 pixels. and this is where i couldn't go further. 

 

As, I'm quite new to this. I would like to know what is avalon in sopc builder, and what actually sopc builder do?
