Could we do discuss such subjects in one pharo day for instance ?

May would be perfect for me.

If I remember well, smalltalkers from britany have worked on FPGA design on visualwork. I think there were Loic Lagadec, Alain Plantec and Bernard Pottier. 


Maybe they can help here ;-)

not quite what you asked, but... apart from their size, one advantage of FPGAs and Arduino & ESP32 microprocessors 
over purpose CPUs is providing deterministic real-time latency (i.e. sensor inputs controlling motors).
For that domain a strong contender in a Pi-like format is the Programmable Realtime Unit of the BeagleBone Black.

40x faster response time than the main CPU of BeagleBone (and Pi).  See slide 11...

I���m trying to collect information about programming in pharo for FPGA. The only things I found are around PharoROS like this [1]. If anyone has more information or is willing to talk about I���m open ears.

The background is that we did little things with the PharoThings toolkit and want to research which other combinations like Arduino, ESP32, FPGAs are there to be a good extensions to a Pi.

Any hint is welcomed!

Thanks,
