Next Generation PCI-Express Frame Grabber | Dalsa Coreco

 

The X64-CL Express is a Camera Link frame grabber that is based on the PCI Express interface - next generation bus interface technology for the host PC's. PCI-Express is a serial digital interface technology that is specifically designed to offer dedicated bandwidth to each plug-in device while reducing the PCB design complexity.

As a part of its standard features set, the X64-CL Express offers an FPGA based image processor called the Re-loadable Processing Engine (RPE). Fast and efficient, the RPE frees up the host CPU from performing tasks such as shading correction and Bayer decoding while delivering images that can be readily used by demanding vision applications without further preprocessing.

The X64-CL Express features input lookup tables for Base and Medium monochrome and color RGB cameras. Available for 8, 10 and 12-bit area and line scan cameras; the iLUTs are dynamically loadable and are fully user programmable. The input lookup tables can be used for such tasks as image thresholding, gamma correction or pixel format conversion, simplifying subsequent image processing steps.
