Let your camera do the math!

OpenCV enabled intelligent cameras

With PicSight Smart Leutron Vision offers the possibility to program a C/C++ based application directly on the cameras RISC processor. For this purpose the PicSight Smart Camera Family is avalable as an extension of PicSight GigE. OEMs may produce their own low cost vision system reusing their image processing expertise. If you own image processing routines written in C or C++, PicSight Smart offers a great oportunity to use your previous made investment again on a new plattform avoiding the cost of the PC.

Key features:

• Programmable Digital Camera Family with 28 different Sensors
• Best price/performance ratio on the market
• Embedded capabilities with a 32-bit RISC Processor
• 64 MB Memory to save multiple images and program code
• 32MB flash memory for application storage
• Ansi C/C++ Cross Compiler
• Runs Halcon Embedded and OpenCV Image Processing Libraries
• Realtime Operating System (RTOS)
• 10/100/1000 Ethernet Bridge Technology from Intel
• Compliant with GigEVision / GenICam standard
• Several Digital I/O for trigger, strobe and interaction with peripherals
• Programmable video output interface to display images on a monitor
• RS232 interface
• Optional Realtime Functions on FPGA
• WEB interface for customized settings
• FTP interface for application upload
• optional with lense control interface

PicSight-Smart versatility makes it the ideal solution for vision applications in many industries (semiconductor, industrial, pharmaceutical, defense, surveillance...).

Software development

Typical sequence of development is:
1. Create code ( first time by modifying one of the embedded code examples)
2. Cross compile and link with the embedded library
3. Upload the executable with an FTP tool over ethernet to the camera.
4. Start the executable with the PicSightControl tool and observe via log windows the application flow.
5. Remove any debugging code and configure via WEB browser the camera for automatic application start after power up.
