New Pixel Professor™ camera with on-camera image pre-processing

The new Pixel Professor™ camera MV-D1024E-PP01-40-CL from Photonfocus is aimed at all customers who need real time image pre-processing on the camera. With in-built image pre-processing hardware (FPGA) in the camera reliance on specialised frame grabbers or other hardware accelerators is removed. Another major advantage of performing image pre-processing on the camera results in a dramatic reduction of the vision system computer CPU load. As a consequence the vision system can run faster or use more sophisticated algorithms in the same time period producing better results.
The new Pixel Professor™ camera is aimed at all Machine Vision users, even the ones not having any knowledge about how to program FPGAs. For this Photonfocus offers their clients the Pixel Professor™ Lab, a graphical user interface (GUI) that allows any user to set up his image pre-processing operators with just a few mouse clicks on the computer. Customers wanting to implement their own image pre-processing algorithms on the camera’s FPGA should contact Photonfocus in order to further discuss this possibility.
