Hi,

I have to do a study for building a thermal imaging camera. The sensor would be some focal plane array detector.
and i will need to do the non-uniformity correction, image enhancement etc. i read a few papers about the IR camera desing using
FPGA and DSP both
or only DSP
or only FPGA.



I have worked on FPGA and though I know DSP , i have never worked on a DSP processor but am quite comfortable with C.

Is it difficult to work on a DSP processor for a newbie and get the project successfully implemented in around 4-6 months ?

Also, if i chose to use DSP processor + FPGA combination, as many papers suggest, which should be the ideal choice for DSP processor (or kit), in terms of price, availability of tools and development (learning + development) time.

any suggestions would be of great help.

thanks.
