camera to lcd interfacing

[crumpet]

Does anyone know a simple microcontroller/chip that can interface to a Image-Sensor and TFT LCD-module?

There is no need for capturing images or video, just forward live camera output directly to the LCD screen for viewing. Full blown Apps Processors like OMAP maybe an overkill, so looking for something simpler with less pins.

The Camera is VGA resolution and can be one of two types:
- YUV output thru 8-bit data bus (D7:0, HSYNC, VSYNC, PCLK)
- UART output

The LCD is VGA or smaller with the interface:
- 16-bit RGB interface (D15:0, HSYNC, VSYNC, PCLK)

Any pointers and recommendations are welcome !

1> you can use beagle board
BeagleBoard.org - hardware
it has uart input and Video ouput.. with this board it will be lot easier for u to do that..

2>FPGA is the solution.. get one FPGA board which has VGA ouput and UART input.. and with sample code available on net u would be able to do that

still more solutions are there

Thanks for your reply.

What frame-rate can UART camera support?
I'm looking for >15fps VGA or lower resolution.
