Xilinx to showcase solutions for industrial electronics at SPS/IPC Drives 2013

Xilinx to showcase its FPGA chip Solutions for Smarter Factories and Smarter Vision at SPS/IPC Drives 2013, particularly the Zynq All Programmable SoCs for designing Programmable Logic Controller, Motor Control, Industrial Networking, Machine Vision and Functional Safety applications. Learn more about Xilinx's All Programmable Solutions for Smarter Factories and Smarter Vision by visiting Booth #6-111 at SPS/IPC Drives, November 26-28, at the Nuremburg Exhibition Hall in Nuremburg, Germany. Xilinx Demonstrations at Booth #6-111 Smart Compact Vision System This demonstration compares two high speed Optical Character Recognition (OCR) systems performing real-time silicon device code recognition utilizing the Zynq-7000 All Programmable SoC and the HALCON machine vision software from MVTec. The hardware acceleration system processes the video stream at 60fps while the software-only implementation runs at a slower rate. The acceleration of hardware was implemented using VisualApplets from Silicon Software that reduces development time and design complexity. High Bandwidth Machine Vision This demonstration showcases two video streams transferred with different high-speed protocols for machine vision cameras and frame grabbers that are enabled by the Xilinx 7 Series FPGA and SoC devices.
