Press Release Summary:
Digital Input Module acquires images at resolutions up to 2048 x 1024 pixels from single or dual tap area scan cameras, 8-bits/pixel wide at 60 MHz, or 10-bit/pixel wide at 30 MHz in dual channel mode. LVDS and RS-422 compatible module offers four 256 x 8-bit and one 1024 x 8-bit programmable input lookup tables (LUTs). It is used with Bandit-II RGB (AGP) and Bandit-II MV frame grabbers.
Original Press Release:
New Input Module Increases Versatility and Speed Of Coreco Imaging's Bandit-II RGB and MV Frame Grabbers
Montreal, Quebec (September 17, 2002) - Coreco Imaging, a leading developer of high-performance machine vision products, today introduced a new Digital Input Module for the Bandit-II RGB (AGP) and Bandit-II MV frame grabbers that further extend the image acquisition and processing capabilities of both boards.
The Bandit-II Digital Module acquires images at resolutions of up to 2048 x 1024 pixels from single or dual tap area scan cameras, 8-bits/pixel wide at 60 MHz or 10-bit/pixel wide at 30 MHz in dual channel mode. LVDS and RS-422 compatible, the Digital Module features four 256x8-bit and one 1024x8-bit programmable input lookup tables (LUTs).
RGB frame grabber with on-board display
The latest addition to the Bandit-II product line, the Bandit-II RGB is a high-performance frame grabber that offers developers of color vision applications extensive acquisition and display functionality. The frame grabber's flexible, state-of-the-art acquisition control unit (an integral part of all Bandit-II products) can acquire images from a mix of video, s-video, monochrome multiplexed and RGB cameras, including JAI's new CV-M77 RGB camera. With the introduction of the Digital Module, OEMs can now interface the Bandit-II RGB with widely used two tap digital output LVDS format cameras. Featuring dual independent display outputs (VGA-VGA or VGA-TV), the Bandit-II RGB is an ideal solution for OEMs in machine vision, medical imaging and image analysis.
Monochrome frame grabber with on-board display
The Bandit-II MV is a performance-proven triple channel monochrome frame grabber with integrated display designed for machine vision applications requiring highly accurate, low noise images. Featuring 40 MHz digitization from standard or custom progressive scan asynchronous reset cameras, the Bandit-II MV gives OEMs an edge by providing them with real-time control of essential operations like I/Os, frame stamping, trigger, strobe and exposure control. One of its outstanding features is the ability to perform real-time image transfer to system memory with zero CPU usage.
Multi-board system solution
Now, multiple Bandit-II Series products can co-exist as non-system display boards in a system with any third party VGA card under Windows 2000, XP and NT 4.0. This configuration is beneficial for vision applications requiring concurrent image acquisition from various camera types.
All Bandit-II RGB and Bandit MV frame grabber applications are developed under Windows NT,® Windows 2000® and Windows XP® using Coreco Imaging's Sapera(TM), WiT(TM) or IFC software development libraries. Coreco Imaging's software development tools allow users to develop applications with C DLLs, C++ classes or ActiveX controls on Microsoft Visual C/C++ 6.0 (or higher) or Visual Basic 6.0 (or higher) development platforms.
The Bandit-II Digital Module is sold as a bundle with the Bandit-II RGB and MV frame grabbers. For pricing information, please contact Coreco Imaging.
