Applications

Advantages for High speed and High resolution Applications

  • Performance - up to 17x times faster than USB 3.0, 7x than 10GigE and even faster than Camera Link HS or CoaXPress
  • Robustness - durable full metal jacket, no wobbly cheap sheet covers
  • Precision - high resolution (up to 65 Mpix) Global shutter sensors offer quality without smear
  • Distance - for applications that require detached camera head across 300m
  • Latency - minimalistic glass to glass times and low CPU load
  • Modular - adjustable design allows customization for special needs and mounting holes on all available sides of the camera for the best possible alignment of the sensor
  • Compactness - periscopic structure simplifies multi-camera arrangements for 360 panorama
  • Standard - PCIe over Cable interface provides a variety of standard PCIe cables and adapters
  • DMA - direct memory access and flex cables make it ideal for Embedded vision systems
