BitFlow has been developing industrial frame grabbers and software for the imaging industry since 1993. We specialize in interfacing to cameras with very high data/frame rates. Our frame grabbers are working in environments with complex triggering and I/O requirements. What’s best is that our frame grabbers are running in applications where every CPU cycle is precious. Frame grabber interfaces are Camera Link, CoaXPress and Differential, software is some of the easiest to use, yet incredibly powerful and reliable and also offering APIs’ to the common image processing software packages and will work with you on your custom software to ensure you are up and running in no time.

The Aon-CXP is low cost single link CoaXPress frame grabber. While it looks tiny, it has all the power of its big brother, the Cyton. It supports CXP camera speeds up to 6.25 Gb/S. The technology that Machine Vision components are built on are advancing rapidly in performance while size and costs are plummeting. CoaXPress cameras, which traditionally were power hungry, large, and expensive, are now small, cool, and affordable. Single link cameras are coming out that are 29mm cubes. While this sounds tiny, they can still receive 6.25 Gb/S worth of data over the link, almost twice the real world data rate of the USB3 Vision standard and significantly quicker than the latest GigE Vision data rates. This means you can get 2 MP images at 300 FPS! The Aon CXP has been designed for this low cost/high-performance market.
