High-Speed GigE with RDMA and Advanced Sensing Technologies
At the forefront of technological advancements in machine vision, LUCID is shaping the latest developments of high-speed vision, deep learning integration, advanced sensing, and 3D imaging.
By leveraging the latest technologies, we continue to set benchmarks in performance, reliability, and innovation.
High-Speed Vision Becomes the Standard with RDMA for 10 GigE, 25 GigE, and Beyond
The evolution of high-speed vision systems has reached a new pinnacle with the integration of RDMA (Remote Direct Memory Access) for 10 GigE, 25 GigE, and even higher bandwidths. This transformative approach significantly reduces latency while ensuring zero CPU load, allowing for seamless, high-throughput data transfers critical in modern industrial applications. Whether it’s real-time inspection, autonomous systems, or scientific research, this leap in speed and efficiency ensures that high-performance vision systems meet the most demanding requirements.
Deep Learning with the Triton Smart Camera Featuring On-Camera AI Processing
Deep learning has moved beyond traditional software-based applications and is now embedded directly into hardware. Sony’s IMX501 sensor marks a groundbreaking advancement by enabling AI-driven decision-making directly at the sensor level. This innovation eliminates the need for extensive data processing in external devices, drastically reducing latency and bandwidth consumption. With this capability, applications such as anomaly detection, object classification, etc. can achieve new levels of efficiency and intelligence.
Event-Based Vision with Prophesee’s Metavision Technology and Sony’s IMX636 and IMX637 Sensors
The Triton2 EVS camera integrates Sony’s IMX636 and IMX637 sensors and Prophesee’s Metavision technology. These sensors power our Triton2 platform with 2.5 GigE bandwidth, offering unparalleled precision and responsiveness. Unlike conventional image capture methods, event-based vision captures only changes in the scene, delivering ultra-fast, low-latency performance ideal for high-speed tracking, robotics, and complex motion analysis. The Triton2 EVS camera combines event-based imaging with robust hardware, ensuring seamless operation in industrial environments.
Continuous Expansion of Our 3D Time-of-Flight Portfolio
The rapid evolution of 3D imaging continues to redefine possibilities in machine vision. Our Helios2 ToF camera series exemplifies this progress, delivering exceptional 3D depth sensing and measurement capabilities across diverse applications. From logistics and automation to medical imaging and augmented reality, the Helios2 series offers unparalleled versatility and performance.
The latest Helios2 models the Helios2 Wide with a broad 108° x 78° field of view, and a Helios2 Narrow with a focused 31° x 24° field of view. The Helios2 Ray is optimized for outdoor use, featuring 940nm VCSEL laser diodes for reliable real-time 3D point clouds in full sunlight.
