OptoMotive, mechatronics Ltd.

Our cameras are composed of housing, imaging sensor, processing unit and communication interface. In every piece of the camera we put maximum effort to produce an engineering masterpiece. The OptoMotive camera housings are made of CNC machine aluminum and anodized in a special OptoMotive blue color. We use high-speed industrial CMOS imaging sensors which can acquire video in up to 5000 frames per second. The image processing unit is a programmable logic device FPGA, coupled with high-speed memory. With this reconfigurable image processor, parallel real-time image processing is possible. Preprocessing includes color processing and filtering. Postprocessors running parallel to perform image compression, image statistics and other higher level detections. After image processing the relevant data is buffered in the memory and transmitted through the Gigabit Ethernet to the host computer. The camera functionality and image preview is controlled by the SHARKi windows based software or API for user based programming. All of this makes our cameras unique computer vision machines, which are also capable of standalone operations.
