Machine vision technology specialist BitFlow has introduced the Cyton CXP4 four-channel frame grabber, based on the CoaXPress standard.
The board incorporates the Gen 2.0 x8 PCI Express bus interface on its back end, an advancement that doubles the data rate of the Gen 1.0 bus for high-speed access to host memory in multi-camera systems, while using the same compact footprint and connectors.
The Cyton CXP4 is suited to machine vision, industrial automation and inspection, and surveillance design projects. By supporting the CoaXPress (CXP) standard on its front end, it facilitates video capture speeds of up to 6.25Gb/s in applications deploying one to four CXP-6 cameras.
CXP also allows control commands, triggers and power to be sent to and from cameras over the same 75 Ohm coaxial cable, greatly reducing installation costs.
