This week was predominantly focused on learning HLS. I started reading this tutorial by Xilinx and have a rough idea of the workflow using HLS. I also talked to a couple of friends who are currently taking 18-643: Reconfigurable Logic and they pointed me to further resources for learning how to use HLS. After referring to a combination of these resources and some of the sample HLS projects that Vivado provides, I have an idea of how to go about implementing the design.
I am currently on track with the schedule. According to the schedule, this past week was for learning HLS and the upcoming week is for implementing the design. I have begun working on next week’s task for implementing the design by working with Albert to convert the existing Python code for image processing into C that can be passed into HLS.
