Featuring FPGA-based image processing engine that performs real-time digital image processing in 3 dynamic stages, PC-based Model XRI-1200 is designed for applications where images contain motion artifacts and exhibit low contrast, high-noise characteristics, such as x-ray imaging. Supporting 10, 12, and 14-bit images, XRI-1200 is available in LVDS and Camera Link versions, and features image archive framework that supports industry standard file formats.

MONTREAL, QUEBEC (Sept. 12, 2005) DALSA Coreco (a division of DALSA Corporation -TSX: DSA), a leading developer of high-performance machine vision components and services, today announced the XRI-1200. The XRI-1200 is a PC-based digital image processing board specifically designed for demanding X-Ray imaging applications where images often contain motion artifacts and exhibit low contrast, high-noise characteristics. The XRI-1200 performs adaptive image processing to reduce noise in both still and dynamic images significantly improving image quality and contrast.

The XRI-1200 features an FPGA-based image processing engine that performs real-time digital image processing in three dynamic stages, improving measurement and diagnostic accuracy. The IPE employs adaptive frame averaging to reduce noise while compensating for sensor non-uniformity and lens distortions.

Software Support

The XRI Software Development Toolkit (SDK) is a Microsoft Windows compatible C++ library for image acquisition and digital image processor control. It includes easy-to-use tools, utilities and installation scripts to allow rapid application development, diagnosis and deployment. Intuitive and flexible, the XRI-SDK imaging libraries permit users to control all aspects of the image acquisition process and image storage function on both the local and host computers. The software features a powerful event notification technology to increase the application response time.
