First Mikrotron Smart Camera

15 Jan 2021

With the new product family EoSens® Creation, Mikrotron combines a high-speed camera with the possibility of image (pre-)processing in real time and in the camera / at the data source, thus enabling customers to develop new, compact and customized solutions in applications.

Constantly increasing frame rates at higher resolutions generate a high and increasing data rate in the cameras, which must be processed in real time. For this purpose, the entire image processing system with camera, interface, cable and image processing computer has to be designed with the appropriate performance.

The "Creation" family has the basic functionality of a streaming camera in combination with a standard interface that also determines the image and data rates. A powerful FPGA with additional memory enables the processing of image data in the camera in a separate, clearly defined application part. Thus, the image data can be generated and processed within the camera up to the performance limit of the image sensor. The camera then transfers only relevant image data or immediately the result in the form of data and thus becomes the solution.

Basic function streaming camera

• Functionality of a high-speed camera
• Output of image data from max. resolution to ROI up to the performance limit of the interface
• GenICam compliant
• Firmware update in the field
• Fanless, optionally with fan
