Small Size Embedded Vision System Enables Rapid System Development

This board camera contains all components necessary for image processing such as CMOS sensor, FPGA module, high-end FPU processor and memory

Probably the world’s smallest embedded vision system – fully integrated into one board and hardly bigger than an image sensor module is the VC picoSmart from Vision Components.

Only 22 mm x 23.5 mm in size, this board camera contains all components necessary for image processing: 1-megapixel CMOS sensor with global shutter, FPGA module, high-end FPU processor and memory.

An interface board can be connected via the integrated FPC connector. This makes VC picoSmart the perfect base for rapid development of cost-effective, application-specific and compact vision sensors. Vision Components’ long-proven VCRT operating system enables real-time image processing, for instance for object recognition, position control, barcode reading, as well as web edge and level control.
