Integrated Vision System is Smart and Rugged

April 4, 2011 By Randy Frank Leave a Comment

Adding a microprocessor to any sensor is one way to achieve smart sensing. That’s exactly what XIMEA has done for vision systems. By integrating an Intel x86 with a vision sensor, the company created a smart vision system. In addition to being smart, the CURRERA is also rugged. An IP67 class housing protects the sensor and electronics.

The smart camera has several connectivity and software interface options. For connectivity, there are Gigabit Ethernet, USB, VGA, RS232, fast and isolated Digital Inputs and Outputs. The software interfaces include GenICam / GenTL and highly optimized xiAPI SDK.

With all its levels of sophistication, the camera boasts simple deployment.  The vision system’s full functionality is delivered in single OS image file deployable within minutes. A start-up kit is available to simplify the process even further.
