Basler presents an in-house developed Embedded Processing Kit that is optimized for flexible use in vision applications. Due to its design for industrial use, the development kit can be used for prototyping and in series production. Developers can use the Embedded Processing Kit to achieve ready-to-use vision solutions very quickly.

The Embedded Vision Processing Kit includes various interfaces for image processing that allows the connection of different camera types. The in-house developed board benefits from a flexible SoM and carrier board approach based on NXP's i.MX 8M Plus SoC.

The kit includes the reliable pylon Camera Software Suite, which provides certified drivers for all types of camera interfaces, simple programming interfaces, and a comprehensive set of tools for camera setup. For vision applications, BCON for MIPI, GigE Vision, and USB3 Vision are available as interfaces. Customers can configure cameras with a wide range of sensors and performance specifications from Basler's extensive portfolio. The flexible design, which is already geared towards industrial use, can be adapted to any vision project with little effort. For users, this results in less development effort and lower costs.

First functional samples will be available in April, general availability is planned for July. Further development steps towards volume production for use in products and projects as well as further variants with expansion of software support are planned.
