Aspex provides ultra-high performance
image processing platforms for the Machine
Vision industry.
Leading-edge image processing requirements
High-end Machine Vision cameras can operate at up to 1,000 frames per second, with millions of pixels per frame to be processed. The constant evolution of image processing algorithms sets the requirement for an ultra-high performance, software-programmable image processing platform.
With tens or hundreds of thousands of processing elements all working in parallel, Aspex’s Linedancer platforms provide a scalable ultra-high performance platform for implementation of advanced image processing operations, such as
- Comparison with “known good” images
- High speed correlation
- Pattern matching
- Object detection and classification
Semiconductor Wafer Inspection
As semiconductor feature sizes shrink to 90nm and
beyond, ever smaller defects must be detected at
an early stage to minimize the costs of unnecessary
test and packaging.
Higher speed inspection leads to reduced test costs and faster throughput, leading to a significant business advantage to your customer.
Homeland Security
Security systems are increasingly relying on automated machine recognition of abnormal situations, prohibited objects, or biometric data.
Using optical, infra-red or X-ray image sources, Aspex’s platforms can provide scalable processing power for automated detection and matching of target data.
Automated Industrial Inspection
Optical inspection is increasingly being used to augment or replace electrical test, providing a quick and reliable method for detecting missing or poorly placed components.
When combined with X-ray processing, soldering defects on the latest surface-mount components can also be detected at an early stage in the process.
Automated systems can also highlight quality issues in the manufacturing process by producing and analyzing statistics on manufacturing faults.
