BitFlow frame grabbers support AMD and NVIDIA GPUs

US-based machine vision supplier BitFlow said it is the first frame grabber manufacturer to support workstation graphics processor units (GPU) from both NVIDIA and Advanced Micro Devices (AMD). New software co-developed by BitFlow and the two GPU makers enables the integration of the GPUs with the BitFlow buffer interface API (BufIn) and the processing power of NVIDIA and AMD.

US-based machine vision supplier 8300 BitFlow said it is the first frame grabber manufacturer to support workstation graphics processor units (GPU) from both NVIDIA and Advanced Micro Devices (AMD).

New software co-developed by BitFlow and the two GPU makers enables the integration of the GPUs with the BitFlow buffer interface API (BufIn) and the processing power of NVIDIA and AMD. In doing so, Bufln can acquire images and synchronise transfer directly to the memory of AMD GPUs to achieve real-time, zero latency processing.

    No-one should expect the enabling qualities of machine vision to come free of charge but Jason Barnes finds there is still much that ITS stakeholders can do to help reduce costs. After many years of application in high-end solutions for the enforcement and tolling sectors, machine vision is gaining traction in more general areas of traffic management. Nevertheless, those OEMs producing transport-oriented solutions which incorporate machine vision and looking to increase the technology’s share of the ITS mar
