Embedded systems or Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs) are used in the majority of real-time video processing applications to process and convert live video into a format that is compatible with display devices.
Smart cameras are best suited for applications where multiple cameras must operate independently and frequently asynchronously or when distributed vision is required (multiple inspection or surveillance points along a production line or within an assembly machine).
Each unit of a smart camera has its own dedicated processor.FPGAs enable system implementation that can be updated as required. High-speed search is a good illustration of the use of FPGAs: In order to run the Bing search algorithms, Microsoft is utilizing FPGAs in its data centers.
As new algorithms are developed, the FPGA can be modified to accommodate them.
The Global FPGA smart camera market accounted for $XX Billion in 2022 and is anticipated to reach $XX Billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of XX% from 2024 to 2030.
With its new EoSens Creation Series of FPGA-programmable ready smart cameras, Mikrotron is empowering machine vision engineers to achieve accelerated performance at a fraction of the cost of traditional customized solutions.
The EoSens Creation Series, made for multi-camera industrial automation systems, lets engineers embed their own IP into a Mikrotron 2-megapixel 10GigE GenICam-compliant camera that can stream 10-bit pixel resolution images externally at 535 frames-per-second (fps) or 8-bit images internally at 2240 fps. In addition, EoSens Creation cameras offer sensitivity of 20V/Lux @ 550nm for producing detailed, high-contrast images in low light conditions.
Additionally, the camera’s SFP+ connection is compatible with both copper and fiber interfaces, making it possible to utilize inexpensive Ethernet cabling, switches, and network interfaces to construct extensive cable runs.
Mikrotron EoSens Creation Series cameras have an XiLINX Kintex Ultrascale FPGA and an additional 2GB DDRD of memory on board for edge functions like defect pixel correction, gamma correction, dynamic range correction, and noise reduction. They also offer an open, scalable framework.
The integrator can quickly shorten time to market by easily customizing FPGA controls, processing, diagnostics, and resource analysis with the help of the software from XiLINX Vivado Design Suite.
To guarantee a simple development environment, an open platform concept clearly separates the application IP from the fundamental camera functions.
It is recognized by Mikrotron that programming an FPGA necessitates more than just basic understanding of the gate architecture and bit level manipulation.
Mikrotron collaborates with global partners who can implement application-oriented programming in accordance with customer requirements in order to support its customers with the new EoSens Creation Series.
