Introduction
GigE Vision is a standard interface which uses Gigabit Ethernet for machine vision applications.
It was developed primarily by AIA (Automated Imaging Association) members. GigE Vision is
capable of transmitting large amounts of uncompressed image data through an inexpensive
general purpose LAN cable over long distances.
GigE Vision also supports the GenICam
Machine Vision Association). The purpose of the GenICam standard is to provide a common
program interface for various machine vision cameras. By using GenICam, cameras from
different manufactures can seamlessly connect in one platform.
For details about the GigE Vision standard, please visit the AIA web site,
www.machinevisiononline.org
JAI GigE Vision cameras comply with both the GigE Vision standard and the GenICam standard.
