SUPPORTED VISION HARDWARE<br />
Supported cameras<br />
PreciseVision is a software package and does not<br />
include hardware. This software is designed to capture<br />
vision images that are generated by either Ethernet or<br />
USB cameras. PreciseVision permits three camera<br />
options:<br />
OPTION 1 - DALSA Genie GigE cameras that<br />
communicate via a 10/100/1000 Ethernet connection.<br />
OPTION 2 - IDS Imaging uEye cameras that<br />
communicate via a USB 2.0 connection.<br />
OPTION 3 - Other 3rd party USB cameras (Precise<br />
is not able to provide support for 3rd party USB<br />
cameras that have not been tested and qualified)<br />
VISION<br />
When using the standard version of PreciseVision,<br />
the system can connect to multiple DALSA cameras<br />
or multiple USB cameras. However, you cannot<br />
connect to both DALSA and USB cameras<br />
simultaneoulsy. In the Multi-Instance version of<br />
PreciseVision, the same rule applies to each<br />
instance, i.e. a single instance cannot be connected<br />
to a mix of DALSA and USB cameras. However,<br />
different instances can be connected to either<br />
DALSA or USB cameras.<br />

PC CPU Loading<br />
Typically more expensive<br />
640x480 up to 1600x1200<br />
Similar to IDS for same resolution<br />
Supports trigger input and acquisition output<br />
Reduced load relative to USB cameras<br />
Typically 20% less expensive than equivalent DALSA cameras. Nonindustrial<br />
3 rd party USB cameras can be significantly less expensive.<br />
640x480 up to 2560x1920 with even higher resolutions to be announced<br />
soon.<br />
Similar to DALSA for same resolution using USB 2.0 (480 Mbits/sec).<br />
USB 3.0 (4.8Gbits/sec) due in 2011 will reduce the acquisition time.<br />
Same as DALSA.<br />
Higher load relative to Ethernet cameras. Multiple cameras will require a<br />
higher performance CPU. 5 or more cameras may degrade acquisition<br />
time.<br />
Cable length 100M 5M. Powered USB hubs might be able to extend length<br />
Installation and support<br />
Arm-mounted cameras<br />
Fewer steps but more prone to complications due to firewalls,<br />
Ethernet card compatibility, Ethernet switch problems, and<br />
somewhat more complicated driver installation.<br />
Simpler to install on Precise robots since both Ethernet cable<br />
and power are available at end-of-arm<br />
Typically easier for single cameras if wired point to point since no firewall,<br />
less issues with USB hardware interface, simpler driver installation.<br />
Multiple cameras are a bit more difficult to setup since each must be<br />
assigned an ID and registered with the DirectShow interface.<br />
Requires extra external cable for Precise robots<br />
Power 12VDC 4 watts provided in second cable from extra PS 5VDC taken from single USB cable<br />
