I'd probably be interested in accelerating image processing tasks; the higher-resolution sensors would probably offer a greater variety of interesting problems to work on and stress potential solutions a bit more. Or so has been my experience so far. (See auricle.dyndns.org/ALE for what I've worked on so far; acceleration will probably be more important for speeding up testing of the code on higher-resolution images.) > > On the point of adding a second sensor, will a only a single sensor type > > be supported via on-board circuitry?

Ethernet seemed the most sensible fall-back. Obviously, it would be nice to get sensor data directly; is the optional second sensor planned to be of the same type as the primary sensor, or will there be more options available?
