Pleora Scores a 10 with New High-Performance GigE Vision Embedded Interface
Expanding family of GigE Vision embedded interfaces provide designers with scalable bandwidth and flexible feature options for high-performance, high-reliability imaging devices
Pleora Technologies today introduced a new embedded interface that seamlessly transmits low latency GigE Vision video and data at 10 Gbps over flexible Ethernet cabling. Lead customers are now designing the iPORT NTx-Deca embedded interface into X-ray flat panel detectors (FPDs) for medical, dental, and industrial applications, contact image sensors, and high-performance machine vision cameras.
"We are expanding our portfolio of GigE Vision embedded interfaces to provide imaging device manufacturers with a flexible range of 1 to 10 Gbps solutions that reduce development time and costs while simplifying system integration," said Jonathan Hou, President, Pleora Technologies. "With our comprehensive embedded interface portfolio built on two decades of imaging expertise, developers can support a range of bandwidth and performance requirements with a common design approach that is scalable across multiple devices and applications."
Compared with competing approaches that consume design time and dollars and divert development teams from critical system performance features, the iPORT NTx-Deca provides an off-the-shelf GigE Vision standard compliant solution that ensures interoperability in multi-vendor systems. Connect your sensor to the iPORT NTx-Deca, and the off-the-shelf solution seamlessly handles 10 Gbps video and data transport over flexible Copper Cat 6A Ethernet cabling for distances up to 100 meters. GigE Vision 2.0 compliance streamlines interoperability in multi-vendor imaging systems and applications.
The iPORT NTx-Deca integrates unique Image Management Database features to enhance system reliability. For high-reliability applications, such as medical and dental imaging, end-users can store video frames with associated metadata for patient identification, video replay, and traceability. In the event of a power or network failure, image management allows a user to retrieve data to ensure continuous and reliable inspection. The embedded interface supports IEEE 1588 Precision Time Protocol (PTP) to synchronize image capture and imaging system elements, with programmable logic controller (PLC) integration to seamlessly connect to and control critical manufacturing or inspection system components.
The iPORT NTx-Deca is supported by Pleora's eBUS Software Development Kit, the industry leading choice for image capture, display, and transmission in thousands of mission-critical automation, security and defense, and medical applications.

Featured Product
3D Vision: Ensenso B now also available as a mono version!
This compact 3D camera series combines a very short working distance, a large field of view and a high depth of field - perfect for bin picking applications. With its ability to capture multiple objects over a large area, it can help robots empty containers more efficiently. Now available from IDS Imaging Development Systems. In the color version of the Ensenso B, the stereo system is equipped with two RGB image sensors. This saves additional sensors and reduces installation space and hardware costs. Now, you can also choose your model to be equipped with two 5 MP mono sensors, achieving impressively high spatial precision. With enhanced sharpness and accuracy, you can tackle applications where absolute precision is essential. The great strength of the Ensenso B lies in the very precise detection of objects at close range. It offers a wide field of view and an impressively high depth of field. This means that the area in which an object is in focus is unusually large. At a distance of 30 centimetres between the camera and the object, the Z-accuracy is approx. 0.1 millimetres. The maximum working distance is 2 meters. This 3D camera series complies with protection class IP65/67 and is ideal for use in industrial environments.
