Machine Vision Update: 'Next generation' embedded system is 15 times
faster
Cognex has introduced its 'next generation' high performance embedded
machine vision system. The MVS-8200 series is available for PCI,
CompactPCI and VME architectures and features a 200MHz MMX processor for
fast and deterministic image processing.
Users can run the company's PatMax software for high-accuracy part
location and inspection, directly on-board at speeds up to fifteen times
faster than previous embedded systems. Cognex's complete library of
MMX-accelerated vision software tools can be accessed via a flexible
Visual C++ developer's kit and these applications can be ported across
other MVS-8000 platforms without having to rewrite code. Image
acquisition modules are available for RS-170, large digital, colour, line
scan, rapid reset and progressive scan cameras.
