The versatility built into the AVT202 makes it ideal for a wide range of applications. Applications that the AVT202 has been used with include:

• Machine Vision
• Robotics
• Measurement
• Component Inspection
• Medical Imaging
• Security Surveillance Systems
• Thermal Imaging .

The AVT202 color image processing board combines Azure’s proven vision experience with the cost sensitive needs of the PC user. The board plugs directly into a standard ISA slot to provide real-time full colour image processing.

The AVT202 also can meet the demands of the machine-vision community by operating in a stand-alone configuration without a PC.

To assist these applications, the AVT202 contains simple logic to interface to industrial controllers enabling the AVT202 to become a ‘non-contact vision sensor’ fully integrated into standard control systems.

When choosing an AVT202 there are three processor options and two memory configurations.

In addition to the board options, a variety of cables are also available.

• AV-ICM: Mono BNC(m) to 9 pin D
• AV-ICC: RGB BNC(m) to 9 pin D
• AV-DCC: RGB 15 pin D to BNC(m)
• AV-HCB: Video Header to BNC(m)
• AV-HIO: I/O port header to 25 way D(f)
