The Image Manager is the core of Common Vision Blox and provides fundamental
functions such as basic image access and hardware drivers.
Depending on specific application requirements the base package can be extended
by using additional software tools with powerful algorithms to solve any
conceivable industrial image processing task simply and flexibly.
The Image Manager makes you hardware-independent!
- The CVB Image Manager provides all the functionality that is usually offered
by a hardware-bound SDK from a hardware manufacturer.
- In the simplest case, the lean ImageManager-libraries are only used for
image aquisition into the host memory.
- Any further processing can be done with proprietary algorithms. However, the
user already benefits from the hardware independence and the high degree of
optimization.
- Through the standardized image interface, CVB-Tools may always be a useful
addition to the proprietary algorithms.
- Some hardware manufacturers have already chosen CVB as their exclusive
standard SDK and ship customized SDK-Versions of CVB along with their
hardware.
