MODEL HIGHLIGHTS DETAILS
CANCam-GigE When Gigabit Ethernet allows simple and cheap data transfer over long distances, this technology became interesting for machine vision too. GigE Vision® is a protocol especially for machine vision devices, which specifies how to communicate between application and GigE device, e.g. a camera. Sensor to Image developed and offers a scalable GigE solution for various vision applications. CANCam-GigECANCam-GigE is available in three different variants: as camera or data grabbing and transmitting device, as a small display device or as a universal communication module only:
  • Camera: As camera CANCam-GigE is available with different CCD or CMOS sensor for area or line scan applications. Different video-interface modules are also available to support legacy grayscale or color analog cameras, CameraLink cameras or VGA and DVI video sources. The camera series is fully GigE Vision® compliant and therefore could be used with any GigE Vision® or GenICam compliant imaging software, e.g. CommonVisionBlox supplied by Stemmer Imaging.
  • Display: CANCam-GigE is able to act as a controller to get image data sent over GigE Vision displayed on a TFT or VGA screen. In this mode CANCamGigE works as a GigE Vision® receiver and sends the captured data to a DVI/VGA based display controller board. This device can be used as S -Camera Ge USB/CameraLink/Gi S ent Camera Gi LL nte i S tem S ion Sy S t Vi C Compa er BB ra G Frame yGoL hno Cet CANCam-GigE a small visualization device e.g. to adjust GigE cameras without the need of PCs.
  • Communication module: For developers it is possible to integrate the CANCam-GigE communication module with own hardware. For this the principles of works of the architecture are detailed documented, so it is possible to realize communication between customized data acquisition or output boards and the GigE communication board. In addition it is possible to modify and update firmware, so own features can be implemented easily. Of couse it is possible to realize customized solutions, e.g. to bring the communication board into another form factor.
GigE Vision FPGA Core Xilinx In machine vision components, especially cameras, the standard GigE Vision® has almost established. This standard specifies an udp based messaging protocol to transfer data, messages and events. This could be the image data of a camera that are sent to a PC and command or configuration data that are sent to a camera device. GigE Vision FPGA Core XilinxSensor to Image offers a set of FPGA IP cores to fasten up design of GigE Vision® compliant machine vision devices, e.g. cameras , but also receiving components like GigE framegrabbers.

At the moment the Xilinx FPGA families Spartan3x, Spartan6, Virtex4, Virtex5 and Virtex6 are supported.

The design is prepared for 10 Gigabit and Link Aggregation and will support it as cost effective components are available.

To get an easy access to this design solution, Sensor to Image provides a Spartan3E based evaluation-kit for sending and receiving applications. In addition following Xilinx boards are supported:
  • Spartan3ADSP-1800 Starter Kit
  • ML505/ML507 (Virtex5)
  • SP605 (Spartan6)
  • ML605 (Virtex6)
GigE Vision FPGA Core Altera n machine vision components, especially cameras, the standard GigE Vision® has almost established. This standard specifies an udp based messaging protocol to transfer data, messages and events. This could be the image data of a camera that are sent to a PC and command or configuration data that are sent to a camera device. GigE Vision FPGA Core AlteraSensor to Image offers a set of FPGA IP cores to fasten up design of GigE Vision® compliant machine vision devices, e.g. cameras , but also receiving components like GigE framegrabbers.

At the moment the Altera FPGA families Cyclone III, Cyclone IV, Arria GX, Arria II GX, and Stratix IV are supported.

The design is prepared for 10 Gigabit and LinkAggregation and will support it as cost effective components are available (10GBit needs at least 8 3.125GBit FPGA transceivers).

To get an easy access to this design solution, Sensor to Image provides an HSMC Addon Board, which could be used on standard Altera eval boards to test sending and receiving applications.

Reference designs exist for following boards:
  • Cyclone® III Starter Kit
  • Cyclone® IV Industrial Networking Kit
