Does this mean I cannot work on this project? Will it be okay, If I write a
proposal using the current hardware and once the proposal get selected, I
could buy the required hardware.

Is it possible to write a proposal without the hardware?

It would be really kind of you, if you could let me know any other project
that is compatible with my hardware.

 I was also looking into the project "Unit Performance tests for VA-API".

Will this be a suitable fit with my hardware.
