The Gidel HawkEye-CXP-12 (GD-CXP-12G-4CH-PCIe3x8) four channel CoaXPress frame grabbing and real-time image processing system provides the core infrastructure required to realize the most demanding vision and imaging applications.
The HawkEye series offers a number of options to accommodate diverse application needs, from plug-and-play high-performance frame grab- bers to a full system solution comprising acquisition, open-FPGA image processing, and flexible custom camera interface. Off-the-shelf HawkEye solutions include support for CoaXPress and Camera Link cameras.
The HawkEye-CXP-12 is CoaXPress Versions 1.1 and 2.0 compliant and supports up to four CoaXPress channels. The HawkEye-CXP-12 family is based on PCIe Gen. 3 x8, providing CPU-free ultra-fast offload capacity of up to 64 Gb/s. Huge data buffers of up to 16 GB fortify the acquisition bandwidth and the image processing capabilities on powerful Arria 10 FPGA.
The HawkEye-CXP-12 is supported by Gidel’s Proc Developer’s kit, which is composed of the ProcFG GUI application, an API library and examples for developing a customized application, and the ProcWizard application for efficient development of image processing algorithms on FPGA. The HawkEye-CXP-12 is also supported by Gidel’s HLS application support pack- age for compiling untimed C++ code to FPGA HDL code using Intel’s HLS compiler.
The HawkEye CXP-12 frame grabber and DevKit are a good alternative replacement substitute for Silicon Software Marathon frame grabber with your own embedded algorithms, for example.
