Image construction from multiple passes of low resolution se

Basically, and I will flesh this out later, the project seeks to leverage the high speed multicore nature of the Xcore processor to take multiple passes of one or more low resolution sensor to create an higher resolution oversampled image.
The first milestone is being able to use a single sensor in a fixed frame work to "scan" an area and create higher resolution image, much as a fax machine or scanner scans a pixels( except embeded sensors are never quite that simple), starting with MLX90614 thermal sensor. As one core manages sensors, another core can start image construction, and a third start to integrate the data with already acquired data.
The second milestone is to add additional sensors such as ultrasound to map as well as create images, allowing more geometric data to be acquired, such as distance to object being scanned, gyro and compass data could also be added to allow more precise data reconstruction.
The third milestone is to add gyro and compass functionality and remove the sensors from any framework, creating a wireless 2.4GHz link to return acquired data to the user and Xcore.
