Discover the Advanced Capabilities of IDS NXT Malibu

In the ever-evolving world of technology, image processing has become a cornerstone for accelerating, controlling, and optimizing various processes. The integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and applications has expanded the range of possibilities, enabling intelligent cameras to recognize shapes, locate objects, and detect anomalies in complex images. This advancement is particularly significant where traditional rule-based image processing falls short.

The IDS NXT system is designed to make embedded vision accessible to everyone, not just image processing specialists and programmers. This comprehensive AI system includes intelligent cameras and a unique software environment, with the IDS lighthouse AI vision studio at its core. This versatile studio supports users through all stages of application development, from capturing training images to executing the final application

Event Recorder
The IDS NXT malibu can automatically record events independently of a PC system. Using a software trigger, it stores a complete video sequence in the camera’s persistent memory, capturing not only the event but also the crucial moments leading up to it. All recording settings and video streams can be easily configured in the updated IDS NXT cockpit.

Automatic Lens Distortion Correction
With the latest software update, the IDS NXT malibu now offers automatic and hardware-accelerated lens distortion correction. Utilizing the ISP integrated in the Ambarella SoC, the camera performs precise and efficient image rectification, delivering impressively clear images directly from the camera.

OPC UA Integration
The IDS NXT malibu is equipped with an OPC UA server via a vision app, implementing the ‘OPC UA for Machine Vision’ information model. This allows for seamless integration into factory automation systems without the need for additional hardware or programming. OPC UA ‘recipes’ and ‘configurations’ can be conveniently created in the IDS NXT cockpit.

Versatile Applications: The system supports a wide range of applications, including object classification, object detection, and anomaly detection. This flexibility is particularly beneficial for scenarios with highly variable objects and processes.

On-Device Processing: IDS NXT cameras can process machine vision tasks directly on the device, evaluating images and communicating with machines and controllers to trigger subsequent processes
