A multiple camera (multi-camera) based vision system can provide a bigger field of view, faster throughput, greater detailed inspection or more measurement information, and possibly all combined for metrology and inspection equipment. <\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Faster throughput requirements can be satisfied with a single high-speed camera or the larger field of view (FOV) needs are met with a single ultra high-resolution (i.e. 25 Megapixels) camera depending on the system implementation. In certain circumstances, the necessary performance enhancements can be more efficiently achieved through a multiple camera vision system.<\/p>\n
CoaXPress<\/a> (CXP) is an ideal interface for linking together data from several cameras since CoaXPress has the ability to carry many channels of image data and meta-data, which makes the interface easily scalable. CoaXPress is a digital interface standard that allows the transmission of data from a device, for example a camera, to a host such as a frame grabber in a PC, at a high speed of up to 6.25Gbps over a single coax cable. <\/p>\n Because multiple cameras can be linked via a single frame grabber and long, low cost coaxial cables and with absolute synchronization, an accurate system can be created. For example, four (4) 8 Megapixel cameras<\/a> at 16 fps each can be combined on a single frame grabber with a single cable per camera with power also over the cable greatly reducing the system complexity.<\/p>\n CoaXPress as an interface for multiple camera solutions in machine vision provides system builders the highest throughput improvement options. In addition, greater flexibility is available as different non-similar cameras with varying speeds can be connected with the same PC\/frame grabber architecture without any constraints in cable lengths and with low cabling costs.<\/p>\n If you have determined that a multi-camera vision system would increase the performance of your overall instrument, then CoaXPress may be the best interface to use if you have at least one of the following situations:<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n Download our free ePaper for more information on multi-camera systems and ways to implement CoaXPress.<\/p>\n\n
