The NI EVS-1464RT embedded vision system enables building of high-speed, real-time machine-vision systems for applications such as sorting products, verifying assembly, and inspecting packaging. The system is a multicore controller capable of processing images from multiple IEEE 1394 and GigE Vision cameras. The EVS-1464RT features an extended temperature range, real-time operating system, solid-state hard drive, and fanless design, making it suitable for use in harsh industrial environments. A variety of camera connectivity options allow engineers to use many different types of cameras to perform simultaneous inspections ranging from high-resolution area-scan to high-speed linescan and from color to infrared. The system can be configured with NI Vision Builder for Automated Inspection (AI) and also can integrate with NI LabVIEW graphical system design software and the NI Vision Development Module.
National Instruments Announces New Embedded Vision System for Automated Visual Inspection
NI Embedded Vision System Increases Inspection Speed with Multicore Processing for Multiple Cameras
AUSTIN, Texas, June 9, 2009 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ — National Instruments (NASDAQ:NATI) today announced the release of a new embedded vision system that gives manufacturing engineers and system integrators the ability to build high-speed real-time machine vision systems for applications such as sorting products, verifying assembly and inspecting packaging. The NI EVS-1464RTEmbedded Vision System is a high-performance, multicore controller capable of processing images from multiple IEEE 1394 and GigE Vision cameras. Additionally, the EVS-1464RT features an extended temperature range, a real-time operating system, a solid-state hard drive and a fanless design, making it ideal for use in harsh industrial environments.
“In our industrial inspection machines, we prefer embedded devices with real-time operating systems because they are dependable and often do not require IT department intervention,” said Ivan Meissner, general manager of Qualimatest Technologies. “By standardizing on the NIEmbedded Vision System, we are able to achieve the multicore performance of an industrial PC with the reliability and security of a real-time embedded system.”
