| Product re-organisation |
 |
SILICONSOFTWARE strengthens with the re-organisation of its frame grabber families microEnable IV and microEnable III their profiles and application spectrum, and additionally adds new properties and features. Besides an extension of the CameraLink- and GigabitEthernet-based frame grabber models for image acquisition, the functionality of the programmable frame grabber models was extended for SmartApplets. These cover complex, configurable pre-processings for Machine Vision applications, which run in realtime without any load of he host-CPU. |

| SILICONSOFTWARE releases software version 5.1 (RT5) as technical release |
 |
SILICONSOFTWARE releases new DMA900 technology for PCIe x4 frame grabbers as interim version.
Due to the great response from customers in pre-release period, version 5.1.1 (TR), is delivered with a high-speed applet for Full Configuration cameras. The applet achieves a DMA transfer rates of up to 900 MByte/sec. The image data of a Full Configuration 10-tap camera can be fully transmitted hereby.
Since the data are transfered over a single DMA channel, a subsequent reconstruction of partial images is not necessary.
With this transfer performance, microEnable IV AD4-CL, VD4-CL and FULL x4 are the world's fastest PCIe x4 frame grabber on the market.
Version 5.1.1 supports the operation systems Windows XP, Windows Vista, Windows 7 and Linux under 32bit and 64bit.

| SILICONSOFTWARE releases software version 5.1 (RT5) for microEnable series |
 |
With the release of the current version 5.1, the frame grabber board spectrum of SILICONSOFTWARE with PCI -(microEnable III series) and PCIe-frame grabber (microEnable IV series) for CameraLink- and GigE Vision cameras, is supported by a unified software and driver platform for 32bit and 64bit operation systems under Windows and Linux.
The merging of the existing software and driver versions into one will ease the programming of applications. The programming code can be used interface independent now. Besides the unified support of the hardware interfaces, also the software programming interfaces are based on one SDK and hardware applets architecture now. The usage of acquisition applets (image acquisition functionality) and VisualAppelts (customized hardware programming) is transparent. Even SmartApplets, which will be released soon, will be supported
The runtime software is available now and can be downloaded in the download section. |

| Version 1.4 of VisualApplets available |

 |
SILICONSOFTWARE releases in version 1.4 of VisualApplets two new image preprocessing libraries among others. The first one covers an obejct segmentation (blob analysis) for area scan cameras (2D blob) and line scan cameras (1D blob). The analysis is processed on binarised images and supports with its high parallelism even a bandwidth of FULL Configuration cameras.
The objects are not limited in size, shape or overlapping position (1D). Up to 1024 objects per two lines can be detected, which corresponds to a number of 500.000 objects on a mega pixel sensor. The 1D blob for line scan cameras operates in endless mode; even an image height is defined. Image overlapping objects are combined and uniquely defined by their properties. The blob library features the output of number of objects, the according area, contour length and centers of gravity in x- and y-directions. A bounding box can be placed around the objects to extract the relevant ROI (regions on interest) for an adjacent image processing. In VisualApplets environment, the blob functionality can be combined with other preprocessing operators.
The second library covers a JPEG encoder for grayscale images. It supports bandwidth of up to 166 MB/s with configurable quality settings.

| microEnable IV frame grabber with GigabitEthernet support |
 |
The extension of the microEnable IV frame grabber series now supports GigE Vision cameras. The frame grabber is equipped with a four lane PCI Express interface (PCIe x4) and also programmable by VisualApplets. The frame grabber can be used from reliable and resource-saving image acquisition up to complex image processing on all channels in real time. |
