Due to their ability to combine high performances along with flexibility, FPGAs (Field Programmable Gate Array) are used in robotic applications nowadays, especially in case of realtime applications. The FPGA circuits are often designed and configured using the Hardware Description Languages (HDLs) like VHDL or Verilog. However, although these languages provide abstractions up to the functionality level, they lack many features of todays modern languages that make them unsuited for high-level models and systems. In this paper, we present an overview of a methodology that uses a Dynamic Reflective Language, such as Smalltalk, for high level hardware/software co-design on FPGAs.
