CoaXPress frame grabbers

High-Performance CoaXPress Frame Grabbers
Gidel’s CoaXPress 2.0 (CXP-12/6) frame grabber and image processing family offers a number of options, from plug-and-play high-performance frame grabbers to a full custom system solution that includes acquisition and on-FPGA processing. The Proc10A-CXP6 family enables 8 x 6.25 Gb/s links and the HawkEye-CXP12 family enables 4 x 12.5 Gb/s links.

The frame grabbers include a PCIe Gen. 3 x8 host interface, huge image buffers of up to 32 GB, real-time compression, and the ability to offload Regions Of Interest (ROI) for additional bandwidth utilization. The grabber enables the use of 1+ GPixels/s Lossless, JPEG and Quality+ encoders – four times the pixel throughput of any other available solution in the market.

FPGA Vision Development Suite
Gidel’s grabber systems are supported by the ProcVision Developer’s Suite which enables users to tailor their Vision flows in an intuitive and simple manner by customizing both the software and the FPGA design code for different frame grabbing flavors. The kit includes the ProcFG and InfiniVision frame grabber GUIs, APIs, and supporting libraries. The Gidel Proc Dev Kit enables automatic generation of Application Support Packages (ASPs), and includes Gidel’s CamSim (camera simulator) as well as tools for debugging and verifying FPGA ISP IPs.

CoaXPress Vision Edge Computers
The Gidel FantoVision 40 edge computer is a market-unique solution combining CoaXPress Vision grabbers with an NVIDIA Jetson computer in an ultra-compact form factor. FantoVision enables image pre-processing on FPGA, including compression, and further real-time processing on the Jetson computer using NVIDIA’s CUDA-based image processing and AI libraries.
