 Welcome to the Allied Vision Boost. This is our Toradex partner. The camera is getting more and more important and we partnered up with Allied Vision to have a really great out-of-the-box experience if you're interested in cameras which are really industrial like many of our customers need. And John Pitchin will talk a little bit more about our collaboration and their offerings. Yeah, so we are very happy to partner with Toradex on this Starter Kit which we have just released which is available. And yeah, a bit more about our collaboration. We work with Toradex by supporting their Apali series and we'll expand it to other series in the future. We have our LVM camera series which you can see in a big model here on the booth. It's based on an ASIC design which we've done ourselves and it has a CSI2 interface and what's special about it by integrating just one driver in your BSP you can support all the camera models which are available with Elvium. So that's currently I think 15 different camera models which are available. Monochrome color, different sizes, different resolutions, different frame rates. And yeah, we're very happy to show you. Yeah, let's have a closer look at what's in the box. It's not the final box, right? Yeah, so in the box we have our camera, a lens for the camera, a power supply, the Apali's module from Toradex and the Xora carrier board, then a camera stand and an accessories kit and also some cloud voucher for the AWS cloud. So with this you really have a good starter kit to do AI on the edge. And yeah, let's have a look at the camera. So that's actually the camera. You connect the lens, you can use any lens you want and here in the back you have a CSI2 connection and you can see our Elvium technology ASIC which integrates the sensor front and the image processing library and different back ends here showing the CSI2 version. Alright, can you describe more allied vision, the speciality? Yeah, so allied vision is really an industrial camera manufacturer. We come from the industrial space. Our cameras are found in many factory automation applications. So many inspection machines, many measurement machines but we're actually in a lot of different applications. You usually don't see the camera but it's necessary for automated production and IoT. Do you have some examples of it there? Yeah, we have here really our ecosystem which we support which of course one of the supports is with the Toradex module which we show here. We have an S-mount lens on our camera. This is a 5 megapixel camera just streaming data and I think it's very impressive how small the whole system can be including the camera and the whole embedded board. And a lot of other solutions here? Yeah, we do support different... So we have a whole ecosystem and what's really important is that our driver which is unique for one architecture it supports all the camera modules. Just one driver and all the camera modules are supported no matter what resolution, frame rate or even camera lens mount you want to use. And it's a busy show, not of discussions you have? Yeah, actually we are very happy about the show and the interest especially in the Starter Kit and our collaboration with Toradex so yeah, there's been a lot of interest and we look forward to a lot of exciting applications. Hi, I'm Sebastian from Allied Vision, I'm a technical lead here and I want to give you more insights about the Allied Vision platform concept. Here you can see a bareboard version of the Allied Vision Allied Vision camera series in the front, the image sensor, in the back, our chip, the Allied Vision ASIC. We are capable of connecting MIPI CSI 2 or USB3 there both are bareboard versions and what's nice about this is that we have a modular system starting from hardware up to software. Here you can see a close housing USB version so customers can select different mounts like C-mount, S-mount or even bareboard versions or open housing and can stay with their pinning since it's always the same. This goes up to software where they can use the same drivers and in the end they can spare many efforts. So for the industrial, for the embedded market it's a lot to do with reliability, long term like using it for a very long time. What are the other considerations and do these kind of products? Initially we are a machine-bidding manufacturer for industrial cameras so industrial grade is a big topic. What we can bring here is industrial sensors which are integrated into the IBM cameras. So usually you have an image sensor which you connect directly to your embedded board but this comes with lots of efforts. You have to write all the drivers for each sensor. For example if you take a Sony sensor it's a completely different story than conferring on semi-lower resolution for example. And we take that over. Customers can stay with their design, hardware design and can stay with the same drivers and when they're not sure which sensor is the right choice for them they can try out a cheaper one, low resolution one and later exchange it with a high resolution Sony sensor for example. How high resolution do you get? And also there's a lot of new things with the AI that allows for a whole bunch of new sensing happening through the camera that maybe before was not really thought of and now if you plug it into some really cool new boards you can do a whole bunch of new things, right? That's right. Deep learning is a very interesting technique which came up a couple of years ago and there's a huge variety of applications or problems you can solve with deep learning and there again we come into play doing the right image processing preparing the image that the deep learning network has less to do or less calculations to do. I think it's very important that you prepare the image right so that your inference time running the trained network is much lower.
