frame grabbers
For Quality Assurance in automation
and Process Engineering applications
Silicon Software produces off-the-shelf and customized frame grabber
solutions for OEM's and machine vision integrators offering a
comprehensive portfolio of frame grabbers for Machine Vision.
They support six digital interface standards and offer devices
for PC plug-in and external image acquisition.
Using highly-parallelized data processing and high bandwidths,
their products target the industrial imaging market allowing complex
visual inspections and high-speed applications to be implemented
in real time using VisualApplets GUI to programme the FPGA processors.
|
Two series of frame grabbers
are offered that cover different requirements.
Both series support a variety of interfaces - Camera
Link; Camera Link HS; CoaXPress; GigE Vision; LVDS and Thunderbolt
Technology and offered as internal plug-in cards or as external
devices.
|
a) |
Frame
grabbers as image acquisition devices
(A-Series), providing additional pre-processing functions
alongside image acquisition
Series A grabbers have powerful FPGA processors to integrate high-quality
image pre-processing functions into the firmware without having
to load into the CPU for processing. There is no image loss and
minimal latency. A-Series frame grabbers are not FPGA programmable.
|
b) |
Frame
grabbers as image processing devices
(V-Series) which are programmable for individualisation

the V Series |
A-series - Image acquisiton devices
A-series frame grabbers are based on the most modern processor technology,
which executes image acquisition without loading the CPU, without image
loss and with minimal latency. The A-Series frame grabbers with expanded
image recording functions come with pre-programmed and valuable functions
that can be activated via the configuration software.
The trigger/GPIO interface offers comprehensive configuration possibilities
for scan and line cameras.
The integrated preprocessing functions are designed for image improvements
- i.e., gamma values, brightness, contrast, but also median noise filtering
and shading correction; image reconstructio - i.e. , tap sorting, Bayer
CFA colour reconstruction, network packet management; and comprehensive
format support.z
With their FPGA processors and generous on-board memory extension, these
frame grabbers represent state-of-the-art technology.
Features common to all A-Series frame grabbers
• Support of Area and Line Scan cameras........
• Broad support of Third-party software interfaces........
• Versatile application and industry usage........
• Flexible and extensible model series
• Robust and industrial FPGA Technology ........
• PCIe Standard height, half length card (167.64 mm length x 111.15
mm height)
