A frame grabber, or acquisition card, is a device that enables high-speed image capture by efficiently transferring images from cameras to computers for processing. Ideal for industrial, medical, and scientific imaging, they ensure real-time, high-resolution data acquisition.
Active Silicon designs and manufactures a range of Camera Link and CoaXPress frame grabber cards in different form-factors. Operating system support includes 64-bit versions of Windows and Linux.
Our high-speed FireBird CoaXPress and Camera Link frame grabbers are fully GenICam compliant and support GPU processing. They provide reliable acquisition in real time and support systems with demanding triggering requirements.
The ActiveSDK software development kit provides comprehensive example applications and optimized libraries. Camera and frame grabber control is delivered by our GenICam compliant front-end software ActiveCapture.
