please help choose a micro-controller to work with image sensor MT9P401

Hi guys,
I'm trying to build a PCB that would contain the MT9P401 ( Intelligent Power and Sensing Technologies | onsemi ) image sensor and would connect to a computer via USB. Upon a computer's commant, it should snap a photo and transfer it back to the computer via usb.

Yet I can't choose what kind of a micro-controller should I use. Maybe you could suggest something or point me to some tutorials about using MCs with image sensors?

Thanks. )

Although there may be better choices for this task a faster ARM based controller (> 1GHz, p.e. CubieBoard, PCduino, etc.) should be able to generate the 96MHz pixel clock to read the image data from the chip. Why don't you just use a standard web cam for this? There you get the requested functionality for a few bucks.
You haven't specified more requirements so we're not able to give you a better match.
