EMVA & VISION 2018
The EMVA will be present at the 2018 edition of the VISION trade show offering networking events like the traditional International Vision Night and promoting the international machine vision standards.
International VISION Night – Sold Out
The EMVA is pleased to organize the popular International VISION Night event on the evening before the trade show starts. In good tradition – it will be the 12th EMVA Vision Night – the machine vision community will meet for a pleasant evening in a casual setting.
More than 115 attendees are looking forward to the networking event and EMVA’s event team had to close the registration already days ago due to the restaurant’s maximum capacity.
International VISION Standards Booth at the show
The EMVA exhibits at VISION 2018 as leading organizer of the International Machine Vision Standards Booth.
Machine vision experts present the most commonly used digital interface standards in the industry in their current versions and stand by for advice on which standard should be used best for a certain application.
Besides of interface standards like CenICam, USB3, or CoaxPress also the most recent developments of EMVA1288 – standard for camera qualification – are addressed.

VISION 2018 – Matchmaking Service
VISION 2018 is supported by Business Beyond Borders (BBB), a matching initiative of the European Commission. Visitors and exhibitors are given the opportunity to find appropriate partners to initiate business according to their needs and profiles.
Exhibitors and visitors can register on an online platform in advance and create an interest profile. Appropriate business partners are brought together based on the requests. Then, in the matchmaking area of the trade fair, it is time for the face to face B2B meetings!
Save the Dates – 2019 EMVA Highlight Events Online
The event websites of two mayor EMVA highlights in 2019 are online.
The annual EMVA Business Conference and the 2nd edition of the Embedded VISION Europe certainly belong to the most important and attractive machine vision events in the upcoming year. Reserve the dates and stay informed visiting:
More details will follow as soon as the event registrations open.

AIT
Scientific Vision Days during VISION show
The AIT – Austrian Institute of Technology is going to continue its successful lecture series the SCIENTIFIC VISION DAYS which is going to be held at VISION fair 2018 at the AIT booth 1D82. Read more ›
The new CMOS-based CX series polarization cameras with GigE and USB 3.0 by Baumer, uses the polarization properties of light and thus allows a wide range of new industrial image processing applications, e.g. for quality control in glass production, carbon fiber fabric (CFRP) or reflective surfaces. The cameras use the 5 Megapixel IMX250MZR global shutter sensor by Sony which has an additional polarization layer consisting of four polarization filters (0°, 90°, 45°, 135°) at the pixel level. A single image is sufficient to simultaneously determine the degree and angle of polarization of the polarized light without changing the filter. Read more ›
BITFLOW – First CXP v2.0 Frame Grabbers
BitFlow, a global innovator in frame grabber technology for machine vision, announced today that it will display its first generation of CXP v2.0 frame grabbers at the upcoming VISION Show scheduled for November 6-8, 2018, in Stuttgart, Germany.
Over the past two years BitFlow has furnished input and direction to the Japan Industrial Imaging Association (JIIA) on the finalization of the new CoaXPress v2.0 (CXP v2.0) standard — an upgrade that will double the speed of the interface used in the inspection of semiconductors, food and beverage, and pharmaceuticals, among others.

The Fraunhofer EZRT, a division of Fraunhofer IIS, develops innovative software modules for industrial applications with computed tomography (CT). While standard processes repeatedly reach their limits, these intelligent algorithms help system manufacturers and users to significantly improve the results of three-dimensional imaging and enable the high-precision dimensional measurement for many applications for the first time.

Silicon Software experts will moderate the forum, support it and expand the knowledge base. The variety of topics is large: installation, licensing, operators, design rules, pre-configured design examples, etc. Read more ›
TELEDYNE E2V
11Mpixel CMOS image sensor for high-speed applications
Teledyne e2v announces the expansion of its Lince family of image sensors with a new 11Megapixel detector. Lince11M is a new CMOS image sensor designed for applications that require 4K resolution at very high shutter speed. This standard sensor uniquely combines 4K resolution at 710 fps in APS-C format.
Lince11M can be advantageously used for in-line inspection to increase manufacturing throughput, or with strobed lighting for multispectral imaging or multi field (bright field, dark field, backlight) imaging, and serve as an alternative to line scan sensors to improve defect classification where uniform image sharpness across all directions is critical.

TELEDYNE DALSA
Next generation family of frame grabbers for high-performance image acquisition
Teledyne DALSA announces the next generation high-performance family of frame grabbers – the Xtium2 for the PCIe Gen3 platform.
The Xtium2 family starts with the introduction of two new models of frame grabber boards featuring AIA’s Camera Link HS® interface: the Xtium2-CLHS PX8 and Xtium2-CLHS FX8. The series will also provide support to upcoming and existing interfaces like CoaXPress® (ver 2.0) and Camera Link.
The Xtium2-CLHS PX8 features 7-lanes operating at 10 Gbit/s using CLHS X-Protocol and can deliver host transfer bandwidth in excess of 6.8 GByte/s. Read more ›
XIMEA
16 Mpix high resolution camera with exciting speed possibilities
Following the release of the initial model with 12 Mpix at 333 Fps, XIMEA is now ready for orders of an additional version with high resolution of 16 Mpix and speeds over 300 frames per second.
The exceptionally fast PCIe interface allows the xiB-64 camera family to stream data at speeds as high as 64 Gbit/s over distances of up to 300m without the need of expensive frame grabbers or special, complicated software. Resolution range of this camera line starts at 1 Mpix up to 16 Mpix and is further enhanced with a Canon lens EF-mount that allows remote control of aperture, focus and image stabilization.
