The Video and Embedded Evaluation Kit - Multi-touch on Cyclone® V SOC Development Board
(VEEK-MT-C5SOC) is a comprehensive design environment with everything embedded developers
need to create processing-based systems. VEEK-MT-C5SOC delivers an integrated platform that
includes hardware, design tools, intellectual property (IP) and reference designs for developing
embedded software and hardware platform in a wide range of applications. The fully integrated kit
allows developers to rapidly customize their processor and IP to best suit their specific application.
The VEEK-MT-C5SOC features the Altera Cyclone® V SoC development board targeting the
Altera Cyclone® V SX SoC FPGA, as well as a capacitive LCD multimedia color touch panel
which natively supports multi-touch gestures. A 5-megapixel digital image sensor, ambient light
sensor, and 3-axis accelerometer make up the rich feature-set.
The all-in-one embedded solution offered on the VEEK-MT-C5SOC, in combination of the LCD
touch panel and digital image module, provides embedded developers the ideal platform for
multimedia applications with unparallel processing performance. Developers can benefit from the
use of FPGA-based embedded processing system such as mitigating design risk and obsolescence,
design reuse, reducing bill of material (BOM) costs by integrating powerful graphics engines within
the FPGA, and lower cost.
