KY-FGK-801 CoaXPress Frame Grabber, 8 CoaXPress Receivers
General Komodo Information
Komodo is best in class Frame Grabber supporting CoaXPress standard. The Komodo is capable of receiving video streams from up to 8 CoaXPress links in single, dual, quad or octal modes. It is used for simultaneous capture from up to two quad link cameras. Each link supports standard CoaXPress bitrates up to 6.25 Gbps. This CoaXPress Frame Grabber is ideally suited for industrial, defense and aerospace Machine Vision Systems and applications. The Komodo can easily receive video streams on the CoaXPress links and transmit them to computer memory through the PCIe interface.
This product also provides GPIO for machine control signals, such as triggers, shaft encoders, exposure control and general I/O, which can be control aside video stream acquisition. The Komodo uses standard DIN connectors as a CoaXPress interface to the camera and standard 100 mil headers for general purpose I/O. The Frame Grabber utilizes PCIe Gen3 x8 links for communication with Host PC for video uploading and configuration.
