Figure 8-9. The module define an operation start_capture following the
access pattern. It also contains a sc_thread that repesents the filming action.
A sc_event is used to trigger the sc_thread within start_capture. Once the
camera is filming the sc_thread has a timed execution with a wait. This
wait is not triggered by the start_capture but by a timeout. SystemC 2.0
currently enforces the usage of an event here though.
A graphic card (HW), reading and composing the in and out images to print
them.
A codec which emulates the memory transactions to encode and decode
the images. One would have prefer reusing an IP which hasn’t been delivered
in time, so we have made it a transaction generator.
