Applied standards
GigE Vision®
The GigE Vision standard is an interface standard for digital machine vision
cameras administered by the AIA that is widely supported in the machine vision
industry. In contrast, Gigabit Ethernet is the network GigE Vision is built upon.
GenICam™
GenICam is a machine vision standard hosted by the EMVA. The aim of GenICam is
to provide a generic configuration interface for cameras and devices independent
of the used interface technology (that is, GigE Vision, USB3 Vision, DCAM IEEE
1394, Camera Link). This approach enables proper interoperability between
GenICam compliant hardware and software solutions without the need for
customization.
The GenICam standard consists of multiple modules that specify tasks to be solved.
Allied Vision cameras and software make use of these modules, like the SFNC that
standardizes feature names and types via an XML file or the transport layer
interface (GenTL) that is used to grab images.
