Huge camera FPGA reduces CPU load of your host system.
Huge camera FPGA with a lot of space for features. We add new features easily via free of charge firmware updates.
MATRIX VISION introduces the Dual Gigabit Ethernet camera family mvBlueCOUGAR-XD - the smallest in its class. The large, powerful FPGA allows preprocessing steps inside the camera directly to reduce the CPU load of the host system. For the first time, it is possible to use a high-speed-buffer mode which writes images faster in the camera's memory as they are transferred.
Your advantages with the mvBlueCOUGAR-XD
Huge camera FPGA with a lot of space for features. We add new features easily via free of charge firmware updates.
The image memory buffers images and enables useful features like Record / Playback, Pretrigger as well as Sequence recording using parameter sets.
You can generate output signals variably, control illumination systems, synchronize several cameras, and a lot more.
You can choose between daylight cut (Cold Mirror), IR cut (Hot Mirror) or glass (without filter) filter, which can be intergrated.
