Xtium2 Overview

By enabling maximum sustained throughput and ready-to-use image data, the Xtium2 series minimizes CPU usage and improves processing times for the host applications. In addition, the Xtium2 series offers enhanced memory architecture to handle area and line scan, monochrome and color cameras. The Xtium2 series offers high performance frame grabbers for CameraLink, CameraLink HS and CoaXPress interface standards.

The Next Generation of Frame Grabbers

The Xtium™ 2 CLHS PX8 features CameraLink HS standard on the PCI Express™ Gen 3.0 platform. This single cable, single slot solution supports up to 4-CLHS lanes, each operating at 10.3 Gbits/s, to acquire images at up to 5.0 GBytes/s and transfer them using PCIe x8 slots to the host memory. The Xtium2-CLHS supports Active Optical Cable (AOC) to extend the cable length beyond 100 meters. Built-in data-forwarding and multi-board sync capabilities deliver a platform for distributed processing for high-speed, computational intensive machine vision applications.

Free Acquisition and Control Software Libraries

The Xtium and Xtium2 series of frame grabbers are fully supported by Sapera LT SDK. Sapera LT SDK is an image acquisition and control software development toolkit (SDK) for Teledyne DALSA'S cameras and frame grabbers. Hardware independent by nature, Sapera LT offers a rich development ecosystem for machine vision OEMs and system integrators. Sapera LT SDK supports image acquisition from cameras and frame grabbers based on standards including GigE Vision™, Camera Link®, CoaXPress®, and Camera Link HS™.

Fully supported by Sapera™ Vision SDK

When combined with a compatible Teledyne DALSA frame grabber, standard Sapera Processing run-time licenses are offered at no additional charge. Sapera Processing is at the heart of Sapera Vision Software, delivering a suite of image processing and analysis functions. These functions include over 400 image processing primitives, barcode tools, pattern matching tools (both area-based and edge-based), OCR, color and blob analysis, measurement, and calibration tools for perspective and lens correction. The standard tools run-time license includes access to image processing functions, area based (normalized correlation based) template matching tools, blob analysis, and lens correction tools.
