The Vision Cam EB uses an event-based sensor and represents an intelligent, freely programmable embedded vision system.
High sampling rates for the detection of extremely fast processes
Drastically reduced image processing effort due to innovative sensor technology
Event-based instead of traditional machine vision
Event-based machine vision is a completely new approach to solving demanding machine vision tasks. Traditional systems acquire images at a fixed frame rate and then pass them on to high-power processors for processing at high required bandwidths. Very often, this approach involves transferring and processing large amounts of data over and over again, even though they are redundant and do not change from frame to frame.
In contrast, systems with event-based technology do not record images in a fixed cycle, but each pixel autonomously provides information if the intensity of the pixel has changed. This revolutionary concept leads to several important advantages such as significantly higher speeds, reduced demands on the processors used and extremely extended dynamic ranges. As a result, Event-based technology opens up completely new application possibilities in numerous industrial and non-industrial fields of use.
Modeled on human vision
With the intelligent camera Vision Cam EB, IMAGO Technologies has developed a compact, Event-based machine vision system that is extremely attractive in terms of price and in many cases considerably exceeds the performance of classic image processing systems in terms of speed and dynamics.
