The Vision Box AGE-X5 is a compact industrial PC for embedded computer vision, featuring passive cooling, an integrated LED controller, and real-time I/Os. With its Real-Time Communication Controller (RTCC), it ensures microsecond-precise process control and data processing – with full flexibility between Linux and Windows.
Real-Time Embedded Computer Vision
Vision Box AGE-X5
Description
The Vision Box AGE-X5 was specifically designed for industrial embedded vision applications where reliability and real-time capability are critical. Its compact housing allows installation even in tight machine layouts. Thanks to its fanless design, the system operates without moving parts – robust, maintenance-free, and built for longevity.
A key feature is the integrated Real-Time Communication Controller (RTCC), which synchronizes cameras, lighting, and processes. This ensures deterministic workflows even at high speeds.
The flexibility to choose between Linux and Windows makes the Vision Box AGE-X5 versatile for developers. With the integrated LED controller and real-time I/Os, it reduces hardware requirements and wiring complexity, simplifying system integration. Machine builders benefit from long-term availability and planning security.
Advantages
Compact and robust design
The Vision Box AGE-X5 is fanless and contains no moving parts. This increases reliability in continuous operation and saves space in control cabinets – ideal for series machines.
Real-time through RTCC
The integrated RTCC ensures microsecond-accurate synchronization of image acquisition, illumination, and conveyor systems. Deterministic processes are guaranteed, even at high speeds.
Integrated LED controller and real-time I/Os
Lighting control is handled directly within the device, and real-time I/Os are seamlessly integrated. This saves additional hardware and reduces cabling effort.
Flexible software environment
With support for both Linux and Windows, developers can work on their preferred platform. Standard libraries like OpenCV or Halcon can be easily applied, enabling a smooth project start.
Easy integration into industrial systems
The Vision Box AGE-X5 can be seamlessly integrated into production systems and offers long-term planning security with its comprehensive interfaces: GigE with 2.5 Gbit or optionally up to 5 Gbit, an additional 2.5 Gbit Ethernet port for high-speed data transfer, digital I/Os, USB, DisplayPort, and the integrated LED controller.
Applications
The Vision Box AGE-X5 is versatile – wherever precise real-time embedded computer vision is required. Whether quality control, track & trace, or packaging inspection – it delivers robust technology in a compact form factor.
Target Group
The Vision Box AGE-X5 is aimed at machine builders, OEMs, and integrators who need compact and reliable solutions for embedded computer vision. It is particularly suited for series production systems where maintenance-free operation and long-term availability are essential.
Developers also benefit from the choice between Linux and Windows and can seamlessly use existing vision libraries. This makes the Vision Box AGE-X5 ideal for both traditional automation companies and innovative production environments.
