The Epix PIXCI CL3SD frame grabbers also can be installed in single computer and synchronized to provide simultaneous multiple views of motion event. SOFTWARE SUPPORT Developers considering implementing highspeed imagecapture systems should also consider number of thirdparty software packages. 40. This processing repeats left to right and top to bottom, forming complete variablelength code bit stream. His goal is to validate structural analytical models of solar sails and to develop an approach to measuring solar sails in space using photogrammetry.

This takes eight clock cycles, and has 16clockcycle latency. Although not strictly Camera Link compatible, the camera is 10 8bit Basler A504 compatible, the company claims. This is peak data rate of Mpixelss. Thus, JPEG compression can be implemented in an FPGA at Mpixelss, in XC2V2000 Xilinx 2M gate FPGA achieving 7151 compression ratio without significant loss of quality.. To reduce the number of multipliers and adders needed, the fast DCT algorithm is used.

This is peak data rate of Mpixelss. Interestingly, the camera uses the PanelLink digital output for realtime image transfer and the companys Motion Tools software that allows the motion of any point within recorded sequence to be automatically tracked. Norpixs StreamPix package, for example, can acquire live uncompressed or compressed video directly to hard disk or RAM memory. To support continuous uncompressed video at recording rates up to Mbytess, the board incorporates five independent, 2Gbits Fibre Channel buses. IO Industries DVR Express CL160 recorder cards, one card per camera.

To reduce the number of multipliers and adders needed, the fast DCT algorithm is used.

Because the sensor has ten 66MHz taps, on each clock cycle ten 10bit pixels are output from the Camera Link or USB port in real time without expensive frame grabbers. IO Industries customized the recorder to record simultaneously from six Dalsa 10bitspixel Pantera SA 2M30 cameras operating at framess. Not only does this require large highspeed camera interfaces such as Full Camera Link, it also requires gigabytes of framegrabberbased, solidstate memory to integrated camera systems, better alternative is to implement systems using highspeed disk arrays.
