Used a modified UART communication protocol to send instant messages and audio between two FPGA boards in assembly. This uses the NIOSII processor on the altera monitor program. Tools needed: two DE1SOC boards, two monitors using VGA, two microphones, two keyboards, and two mice. Two GPIO cables should connect between the two FPGAs using the ring network topology.
