Matrix Vision offers single-board image-processing systems
The mvBlueLYNX-M modules - programmable single-board image-processing systems - are now available from Germany's Matrix Vision GmbH.
The company says that they are designed to use two identical sensor heads, for stereoscopic applications, or two sensors with different resolutions for mixed operation.
All mvBlueLYNX-M modules feature a 400-MHz PowerPC processor, 256-MB DDR2-RAM memory, 32 + 4 MB Flash memory. The board, which measures 120 mm x 120 mm, has two 10/100/1000 Mbit LAN interfaces and supports the GigEVision interface standard. Further interfaces include USB 2.0 (OTG), a miniPCI Type III, provision for SD memory cards and eight digital inputs and outputs to control external peripherals such as lighting. Different light sequences can be generated using a hardware real-time controller.
There are CCD sensors with 640 x 480 pixels up to 1600 x 1200 pixels, CMOS sensors with 1280 x 1024 pixels - in each case in colour or grey-scale versions. The latter is also available with increased infrared sensitivity.
According to the company, it is possible to connect two similar or two different sensors on separate sensor heads to the mvBlueLYNX-M7. This enables the system to be used in applications such as 3D metrology, traffic surveillance or as a movement sensor.
Embedded Linux is used as the operating system which, according to the requirements, can be easily optimised by installing customised software packages or open source software. The mvIMPACT Base library is also included, as are the necessary development tools for use with Windows and Linux-based PCs.
