Vimba is Allied Vision's GenICam-based SDK with transport layers for all Allied
Vision cameras with GigE Vision, USB3 Vision, IEEE 1394, and Camera Link
interface. Vimba runs on Windows, Linux, and Linux for ARM. You can port your
source code from Windows to Linux or cross-compile from a Linux PC to an
embedded system.
Vimba provides APIs for C, C++, and .NET. Users who quickly want to develop a
straightforward application love the simplicity of the C API or the .NET API.
Advanced users with high demands appreciate the C++ API, which is designed as a
highly efficient and sophisticated API for advanced object-oriented programming
including the STL (standard template library), shared pointers, and interface
classes.
Vimba includes programming examples in C, C++, and C# and an extensive user
documentation.
Third-party software
In addition to the software provided by Allied Vision, there are numerous GigE
Vision standard compliant third-party software options available. In general,
third-party software provides increased functionality such as image processing and
video recording.
GenICam-based third-party software automatically connects with Vimba's
transport layers. Additionally, Vimba includes the Cognex Adapter for VisionPro.
Configuring your camera
After the host PC is configured, it is necessary to configure the parameters in the
camera to establish the connection with best performance.
Vimba Viewer documentation
Vimba Viewer documentation is included with the software download. After Vimba
Viewer is installed on your host computer, documentation is located under
