Pleora's iPORT CL-U3M Development Kit (903-0012) is a comprehensive solution for industrial and machine vision applications, offering a seamless integration of USB3 Vision with Camera Link cameras. This kit includes the iPORT CL-U3M External Frame Grabber in a mountable enclosure designed for Camera Link Medium mode, a USB 3.0 cable, and the eBUS SDK USB stick for efficient software development.
These external frame grabbers simplify the integration of USB3 Vision video interfaces for Camera Link cameras, capitalizing on USB 3.0's high-bandwidth output, power over the cable, and compatibility with various computing platforms. Transmitting video from Base and Medium mode Camera Link cameras with low, predictable latency, the iPORT CL-U3M facilitates direct connections to a wide range of computing platforms, such as laptops, embedded computers, and single-board computers.
The integrated PLC and GPIO capabilities empower end-users to control, trigger, and synchronize cameras, providing flexibility and control in vision system setups. The iPORT CL-U3 External Frame Grabber family offers tailored solutions, including support for extended operating temperature ranges, extensive GPIO functionality, and power over Camera Link (PoCL), meeting diverse system requirements.
