The Prosilica Advantage

Recognized by the industry as the leader in GigE Vision cameras
Prosilica introduced the very first GigE Vision-compliant digital cameras to the market in 2005 and has become the leading supplier of GigE Vision cameras. Prosilica produces the widest range of GigE cameras which now counts over 90 monochrome and color models. Our four series of GigE Vision cameras, the high performance GE-Series, the ultra-compact and fast GC-Series, the credit-card sized single-board GB-Series for OEM applications and the periscope-type GS-Series cameras offer a wide range of options to match every customer’s needs.

Advanced engineering
All aspects of Prosilica cameras are designed and manufactured in-house to deliver a more robust and integrated product that meets the highest quality standards.

High quality products, High Performance
Our cameras are noted for their high performance, ultra-compact size, light weight, fast frame rates, wide range of resolution (from VGA to 16 megapixel), advanced triggering, sophisticated controls, industrial ruggedness, and extreme versatility. They feature the latest progressive scan CCD and CMOS sensors for high image quality. Capable of streaming image data at a sustained 125MB/s transfer rate, the Prosilica Gigabit Ethernet interface is the fastest in the industry, 25% faster than our nearest competitor.

Rich set of camera features
Prosilica cameras incorporate an advanced set of camera features including  snapshot/global shutter, pixel binning, area of interest readout, external trigger and sync I/O, RS-232 peripheral port, exposure, and gain controls, non-volatile configuration memory, event recorder capability, pre-trigger recording, programmable strobe functions, multicasting, configurable IP addresses, auto-iris, auto-exposure and auto-white balance controls and more.

Ease of integration and third-party compatibility
All of Prosilica’s Gigabit Ethernet cameras are compliant to the AIA GigE Vision™ standard having the highest degree of plug-and-play usability and low integration costs. The interface also allows cable lengths of up to 100m (300ft) long using conventional Ethernet cabling (Cat5e - Cat6).

Great Software
The Prosilica GigE sample viewer and the customer-acclaimed Software Development Kit (SDK) are both available free of charge. Our SDK supports Windows (2000, XP and Vista), Linux and QNX operating systems on both Intel and Power PC platforms, and MAC OS X. Prosilica GigE Vision cameras are also plug-and-play compatible with third party imaging libraries and applications from Matrox, National Instruments, Stemmer Imaging, Norpix, MVTec, and others.
