nnnnrugged construction with IP67-rated
nnnnhousing and M12 connectors
nnnnA PC-like smart camera
nnnnMatrox Iris GT combines the integration of a smart camera with the programmability
nnnnof a PC-based machine vision system. An Intel® Atom® processor, choice of Microsoft®
nnnnWindows® Embedded CE orXP Embedded operating systems, and keyboard, video and
nnnnmouse (KVM) support, enable the Matrox Iris GT to provide a PC-like environment for
nnnndeploying fully custom applications.
nnnnA choice of monochrome or color CCD sensors, combined with an efficient CPU, allows
nnnnthe Matrox Iris GT to tackle a variety of machine vision applications. Gigabit Ethernet,
nnnnUSB and RS-232 connectivity, as well as GPIOs, give the Matrox Iris GT the ability to inter-
nnnnface with automation equipment and enterprise systems. An IP67-rated housing and M12
nnnnconnectors make the Matrox Iris GT perfectly suited for harsh industrial environments.
nnnnA DIN-mountable breakout box is available separately to easily connect the Matrox Iris
nnnnGT to electrical panels.
nnnnWindows® Embedded
nnnnThe Matrox Iris GT comes pre-installed with either Microsoft® Windows® Embedded CE
nnnnorXP Embedded®. Windows® Embedded CE delivers real-time performance in a smaller
nnnnmemory footprint and is programmed using a subset of the Windows® API. The Matrox
nnnnIris GT running Windows® Embedded CE includes support for the EtherNet/IP™1 and
nnnnMODBUS® industrial communication protocols. Windows® XP Embedded on the other
nnnnhand, is a pared down version of Windows® XP Professional with extended availability and
nnnnsupport. For both operating systems, application development is cross-platform (i.e., PC
nnnnlinked to smart camera) and is done using the familiar Microsoft® Visual Studio® integrated
nnnndevelopment environment.
nnnnMatrox Imaging Library
nnnnMatrox Iris GT is supported by the Matrox Imaging Library (MIL), a comprehensive collection
nnnnof software tools for developing machine vision applications. MIL features interactive soft-
nnnnware and programming functions for image capture, processing, analysis,
nnnnannotation, display and archiving. These tools are designed to enhance
nnnnproductivity, thereby reducing the time and effort required to bring your
nnnnsolution to market. Refer to the MIL datasheet for more information.
