Utilising the LatticeECP3 FPGA-based USB3 AVB development kit alongside Sensor to Image’s USB3 Vision IP and tool chain, the comprehensive reference design will allow manufacturers to begin developing high-quality machine vision cameras with excellent price points.
According to Lattice, visitors who view the demonstration at VISION 2014 will be able to use the production-ready reference design to immediately learn how to begin developing cameras for machine vision applications.
“USB3 Vision will be the primary camera standard for very cost-efficient industrial and medical cameras so it’s important to have our core ready for Lattice FPGAs,” commented Werner Feith, CEO, Sensor to Image. “By combining our core IP and PC tools, which comply with the AIA and GenICam standards, with the LatticeECP3 USB3 AVB solution, we can minimise risk and project time for manufacturers’ USB3 Vision camera designs.”
