2 x Dual Port 100G NICs
U.2 SSDs
Uncompressed recording

This is a real-world example system based on which many of our customers are deploying systems. Emergent is currently providing turnkey systems just like this as well. The largest system of this type utilizes 40 x HB-25000-SB 25MP 25GigE cameras running at 90fps and has in fact scaled this system to 240 cameras. Switches are used to multiplex the cameras to fewer NIC ports in the server and to provide 1us accuracy synchronization using PTP.

This short animation illustrates the flow of data in such a recording system. As with all Emergent designed systems this results in 0 data loss due to zero copy and proper system design.

GPUDirect
H.265 Compression
RTMP Streaming to YouTube or other client

This is another real-world example which uses the same camera setup of example 1 but uses GPUDirect to send the camera data directly to GPUs which perform H.265 compression and the compressed images are stored locally on disk as well as streaming using RTMP to clients like YouTube. At 30fps, we are running this system with as many as 48 cameras using a 48-port switch while still running on a single mid-range server and CPU.

This short animation illustrates the flow of data in such a recording and streaming system.

Custom FPGA processing

Our last real-world example has two of our fastest 100GigE cameras running at 10MP and 1000fps being sent directly into a Xilinx U55C FPGA card where the customers are performing their own custom processing. These same cameras are used in other recording or GPUDirect applications but for the highest performance custom processing some turn occasionally to FPGA cards.

This short animation illustrates the flow of data in such a processing system.

Our award winning eCapture Pro and eSDK are the most flexible and comprehensive softwares available from any camera manufacturer. Here we answer the question about what we do with all of this high-speed data that the cameras output.

Our eSDK is the low-level software programmer option for complete custom application flexibility. It has runnable source code examples which exercise all the critical functionality like efficiently grabbing frames, PTP synchronization, GPU Direct, Multicast, IO triggering, and more.

Our eCapture Pro software is more application based with a focus on system deployment, rapid prototyping, and includes options for customized GPU and FPGA card processing. We handle all the heavy lifting associated with bringing images to your processing resource and do so with top performance. You focus on your application code.

Let’s watch eCapture Pro in action in the following video. Seeing is believing.

We are a multi-award winning company with a focus on high speed GigEVision product.

We have many years shipping product ranging in speeds from 10GigE up to 100GigE.

We have a strong focus on providing end-to-end technologies and support for our customers applications.

We can fullfil most application needs.

Lastly, products presented are available now.

Here is a quick snapshot of the adoption of GigEVision products ranging in speeds from 10GigE up to 100GigE. Emergent has shown how top performance can be achieved and opened up many markets including machine vision to the use of such technologies. Some companies are just now leveraging our efforts toward releasing 25G and higher speed products but still a ways to go to release ratified and performance products.

Figure: Emergent Vision Technologies is the first provider of cameras based on 10GigE, 25GigE, 50GigE, and 100GigE interfaces.
