Proc1C10N-120GigE: 100GigE Vision Frame Grabber for AI & High-Bandwidth Applications
The Proc1C10N-120GigE is a high-performance 100GigE Vision Frame Grabber designed for AI-driven, compute-intensive, and low-latency applications. Built on Gidel’s Proc10N FPGA module with Altera Stratix 10 NX FPGA technology, it integrates embedded Tensor blocks and HBM2 memory, delivering 143 INT8 TOPS / FP16 TFLOPS of processing power. As a result, it can process and analyze data from 100+ GigE Vision cameras in real time, making it ideal for advanced vision-based AI systems.
Performance and Real-Time Image Processing
The Proc1C10N-120GigE is available as a plug-and-play 100+ GigE Vision frame grabber or as part of a complete solution integrating image acquisition, modular real-time preprocessing, enhancement, and advanced compression IPs (.JPEG, Lossless, Quality+).
Inline enhancement features include:
-
High Dynamic Range (HDR) – Captures superior details in high-contrast lighting conditions.
-
White Balance – Maintains color accuracy across variable lighting conditions.
-
Dynamic Luminance Balance – Preserves consistent brightness under changing illumination.
-
Gamma Correction – Optimizes brightness and contrast for improved clarity.
Real-time compression with Dynamic ROI delivers:
-
Extended recording times without compromising quality.
-
Lower transmission bandwidth for efficient data handling.
-
Accelerated offline compression, reducing storage needs and post-processing time.
InfiniVision Architecture – Multi-Camera 100GigE Vision Frame Grabber
Gidel’s InfiniVision architecture enables deterministic, synchronized acquisition from 100+ GigE Vision cameras. It manages bandwidth, connectivity, and scalability in large-scale systems.
A PCIe Gen3 x16 host interface ensures ultra-fast data transfer, while 4 × QSFP28 ports provide up to 400 Gb/s aggregated bandwidth. Additionally, on-board HBM2 and DDR4 memory guarantee consistent throughput, even under extreme data loads.
Therefore, the Proc1C10N-120GigE seamlessly integrates into complex, high-performance multi-camera environments, providing unmatched scalability and reliability.
Flexible Operating Modes
The Proc1C10N-120GigE supports two operating modes selectable via firmware:
-
InfiniVision: Ideal for synchronized multi-camera setups, combining all data—even across multiple cards—into a single buffer with dynamic resolutions and formats.
-
ProcFG: Tailored for precision applications, offering fixed frame sizes, pixel formats, and ROI grabbing (uncompressed).
As a result, the Proc1C10N-120GigE adapts seamlessly to a variety of workflows, from complex multi-camera systems to streamlined single-camera operations.
SDK and Development Tools
The Proc1C10N-120GigE is supported by Gidel’s SDK, featuring intuitive GUIs and APIs for streamlined integration. Additionally, the ProcVision Suite adds advanced FPGA programming, debugging, and validation tools, enabling developers to customize data flows, real-time processing, and compression pipelines with ease. Consequently, they can create optimized, application-specific solutions faster and with reduced risk.
