With Pike cameras, entry into the world of digital image processing is simpler
and more cost-effective than ever before.
With the new Pike, Allied Vision Technologies presents the broadest range of
cameras with IEEE 1394b interfaces. Moreover, with daisy chain as well as
direct fiber technology they gain the highest level of acceptance for demand-
ing areas of use in manufacturing industry.
Allied Vision Technologies can provide users with a range of products that
meet almost all the requirements of a very wide range of image applications.
The industry standard IEEE 1394 (FireWire or i.Link) facilitates the simplest
computer compatibility and bidirectional data transfer using the plug & play
process. Further development of the IEEE 1394 standard has already made
800 Mbit/second possible – and the firewire roadmap is already envisaging
1600 Mbit/second, with 3.2 Gbit/second as the next step. Investment in this
standard is therefore secure for the future; each further development takes
into account compatibility with the preceding standard, and vice versa,
meaning that IEEE 1394b is reverse-compatible with IEEE 1394a. Your appli-
cations will grow as technical progress advances.
