Frame grabbers control the vision system

Frame Grabber

Control center of the vision system

Frame grabbers are one of the key components for robust, high-speed image acquisition and signal control. At the core of the image acquisition boards are FPGA processors that ensure extensive image data processing in real time.

  • Reduced CPU load

    Thanks to efficient image preprocessing, which creates lower data volume
  • Bandwidths up to 50 Gbps

    For joint processing of high data rates and high resolutions
  • Real-time image processing

    Thanks to image and trigger processing with deterministic latencies
  • Customizable

    Individually programmable with our frame grabber services

Our frame grabber series

We offer three frame grabber series - imaFlex, imaWorx, and microEnable 5 marathon - tailored to meet your individual vision system requirements. They differ in their range of integrated features and their interfaces.

Image preprocessing on the frame grabber

Image preprocessing on the frame grabber is a key intermediate step in the image processing procedure, which begins with image acquisition using the camera and results in an output to the host PC. To support the FPGA programming required for this, we offer the VisualApplets graphical development environment as well as comprehensive programming services.

Image preprocessing and image processing systems

Image preprocessing streamlines image processing systems

Image preprocessing on the frame grabber's FPGA optimizes the image data in real time for the respective application. The optimized image data is transferred securely and without loss of individual images for subsequent image processing. This improves the performance of the application, simplifies further processing, and reduces the CPU load on the host PC.
