Read how a new class of PC Cameras include all the functionality of full vision system.
MUNSTER, GERMANY, February 29, 2012 – “PC Cameras: PC-Host Vision Performance Without Sacrifice,” is a new white paper from the engineers at machine vision specialists, XIMEA, that discusses how new heterogeneous multi-core processors have finally enabled cutting-edge machine vision designers to deliver a fully-functional machine vision system within a smart camera footprint.
Heterogeneous multi-core microprocessors, such as the AMD Fusion Accelerated Processing Unit (APU), combine a CPU and GPU block on the same microprocessor die to make 90 Gflops of number-crunching power available to machine vision designers while keeping thermal design power (TDP) low enough not to require active cooling, resulting in PC-class processing performance in a solid state PC Camera design.
Download this white paper to learn how the new class of PC Cameras offer machine vision integrators and end users all the functionality of an industrial PC inside a high-resolution industrial camera, including hardware support for: a full OS (Windows XP, 7 or Linux; embedded or full versions), dozens of full-featured image processing libraries, including LabVIEW, MIL, MVTec and dozens more; traditional PC-host network functionality, I/O, and peripheral support; and all the other features you’ve come to expect from PC-host machine vision solutions.
