ProcFG: Deterministic Image Acquisition System<\/h2>\n

ProcFG is Gidel\u2019s deterministic image acquisition system, engineered to reliably capture every frame produced by connected cameras without loss. The system targets Machine Vision & Imaging <\/a>applications that demand predictable timing, complete data integrity, and long-term operational stability. Unlike flexible multi-camera platforms that favor dynamic configurations, ProcFG enforces strict acquisition rules in hardware, preventing frame drops caused by host CPU contention or operating system scheduling.<\/p>\n

Acquisition Architecture for Guaranteed Frame Capture<\/h3>\n

ProcFG operates as an acquisition application on top of Gidel\u2019s FPGA-based frame grabbers. It controls how the system captures, buffers, and delivers image data to the host. Its primary goal is to prevent frame loss during continuous operation.<\/p>\n

ProcFG handles acquisition logic directly on the FPGA. This approach minimizes reliance on host-side software timing. As a result, downstream pipelines receive a complete and ordered image stream, even in high-throughput or long-duration deployments.<\/p>\n

ProcFG integrates seamlessly with Gidel PCIe Frame Grabbers<\/strong><\/a>. It can also run on Mini Jetson Frame Grabber Systems<\/strong><\/a> and FPGA Modules<\/strong><\/a> for compact or embedded installations.<\/p>\n

The platform works with GigE Vision<\/strong><\/a>, CoaXPress<\/strong><\/a>, and Camera Link<\/strong><\/a> interfaces. Gidel can also add custom sensor interfaces and protocols on request.<\/p>\n

Deterministic Image Acquisition Model and Operating Variants<\/h3>\n

ProcFG uses a deterministic acquisition model. The system defines frame size, pixel format, and timing behavior in hardware. This approach simplifies system validation and reduces variability across operating conditions.<\/p>\n

ProcFG offers multiple variants to address specific acquisition needs. These include single-camera and multi-camera setups that require strict timing alignment and repeatable behavior. Designers can select the right balance between throughput, buffering, and synchronization without risking frame integrity.<\/p>\n

FPGA-Based Image Acquisition Preprocessing and Data Handling<\/h3>\n

In addition to frame capture, ProcFG performs FPGA-based preprocessing directly on the frame grabber. Processing data close to the sensor reduces unnecessary data movement and lowers host-side load.<\/p>\n

ProcFG can also include optional inline processing blocks such as ISP. These blocks help manage bandwidth, storage, and processing efficiency while preserving deterministic acquisition behavior.<\/p>\n

Integration into Gidel Vision Architectures<\/strong><\/h4>\n

ProcFG integrates naturally into Gidel\u2019s broader vision ecosystem. It serves as the deterministic acquisition layer within systems that also include FPGA-based image enhancement or embedded processing.<\/p>\n

Some applications require flexible camera configurations, dynamic frame sizes, or very large synchronized camera arrays. For these cases, Gidel offers the InfiniVision<\/strong><\/a> multi-camera vision system. ProcFG is the preferred choice when guaranteed frame capture and predictable behavior matter more than flexibility.<\/p>\n

Why Choose the ProcFG<\/h2>\n

ProcFG provides a focused and reliable foundation for deterministic vision systems. It moves acquisition control into FPGA hardware and enforces strict capture behavior. This approach enables complete and repeatable image acquisition under sustained load. When frame integrity, timing predictability, and long-term stability are critical, ProcFG delivers a proven and purpose-built image acquisition system.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
