SVSi…Delivering Intelligent High-Speed Imaging Solutions

SVSi is the industry leader in the design and manufacture of intelligent high-speed cameras. This unique combination of high-speed imaging performance and smart-camera integration, allows SVSi to deliver simple solutions to complex imaging problems.

With over two decades of experience in complex image processing, SVSi has developed two unique lines of high-speed cameras. The MemView product family provides “plug-n-play” solutions to capturing high-speed video for applications including weapons testing, crash testing, packaging inspection, and ballistics.

With the SpecterView product line, SVSi is able to solve many complex image processing problems in applications such as machine vision, wavefront sensing, and custom image processing.

Products Overview

MemView™
As a general purpose high-speed camera, MemView provides a very cost effective solution to high-speed video applications. By recording and storing several seconds of imagery at speeds up to 16,000 fps, MemView provides the necessary means for analyzing most high-speed events. When combined with the optional “Image-Cued Intelligence”, or iCi, MemView can deliver even more powerful solutions for weapons testing, crash testing, ballistics, packaging inspection, and motion analysis.
 
SpecterView™
By virtue of its smart-camera design, SpecterView offers the most flexible high-speed imaging solution available. It's well suited for applications that involve unique photo-detection issues, as well as any application that demands complex, real-time image processing. SpecterView is available in several versions as well as serving as the ideal platform for custom imaging solutions.
 
GigaView™
In any production environment, downtime is expensive. But when the production machinery is moving faster than the human eye can follow, it’s really expensive! For just these situations, SVSi offers GigaView – a Gigabit Ethernet equipped, high-speed digital video camera system specifically designed for the difficulties of the production environment. GigaView is the only complete video solution that delivers the images you need to solve the problem…every time.

The opportunity that the current market offers is the general availability of high-speed and cost effective CMOS sensors, high-speed, low-power microprocessors, and FPGAs. Using these technologies enables FastVision to develop market leading products for the high-speed accelerated or “smart” camera markets. These markets have traditionally been served by proprietary products that are expensive, have limited real-time compute capabilities, and have restricted storage disk or memory space.
The FastCamera Series of cameras and systems are the initial realizations of the concept of high-speed mega pixel digital camera systems, based on CMOS imagers. These cameras have a high-speed, scalable, integrated FPGA and memory subsystem which enables stand-alone high speed in-camera image processing. When integrated with a high powered framegrabber/coprocessor board, or a host subsystem, the resulting system capabilities can be expanded according to the compute needs of the user. In addition, this subsystem can be integrated with the newest disk technology to allow sustained real-time data acquisition to hard disk.
Thus the FastCamera40 and FastCamera13 are the initial offerings of an new and innovative high-tech camera company.
