InfiniVision Multi-Camera System

Multi-Camera Frame Grabbing and Processing System

  • Grabbing and synchronization between as many as 100 cameras
  • Grabbing capability of varying incoming data sizes
  • Option for adding inline Image Signal Processing (ISP)
  • Option for inline image compression
  • PCIe interface
  • Supported by the  Grabber SDK suite
  • Supported by  the ProcVision suite for custom grabbing on FPGA

 

The Gidel InfiniVision™ provides flexible infrastructure for acquisition and processing from multiple cameras/sensors simultaneously. The InfiniVision is offered in a variety of Gidel frame grabbers boards and edge computers. The InfiniVision suite is supported by a GUI Application, API library, and an option, for advanced users, to customize the FPGA acquisition and image processing pipeline. The system can capture data streams of varying frame data size and can synchronize between up to 100 cameras/sensors. Camera interfaces currently offered by Gidel include GigE Vision, CoaXPress, Camera Link, and MIPI, as well as an option for customizing the camera/sensor interface and protocol. The acquisition path allows for adding data processing blocks such as Image Signal Processing (ISP) and compression.

InfiniVision’s ability to grab on-the-fly incoming data of any size adds another dimension of flexibility, enabling imaging applications to combine images of various sizes arriving, for example, from different camera types or from selective ROIs of variable sizes.
