Accelerating time to market using COTS optical sensor modules 

Accelerating time to market using COTS optical sensor modules 

Today’s vision requirements are changing rapidly, and companies face a constant struggle to shorten the time to market without sacrificing product quality or neglecting the latest technological innovations that must be incorporated into the product to remain competitive. 

Solution to accelerate time to market

The development of customized optical sensor modules can be quite complex. Selecting the right sensor, pairing it with a lens, and tuning the ISP can be overwhelming and time-consuming for product managers and engineers who understand the importance of allocating sufficient resources. 
 
To simplify the realization of your visionary embedded projects, FRAMOS offers a solution with FSM: GO – ready-to-use optical sensor modules that simplify embedded vision development and eliminate the need for extensive imaging development knowledge, allowing customers to bring their devices to market faster and more efficiently. 

FSM:GO is a ready-to-use optical sensor module that solves the challenges of developing embedded vision systems by combining preselected image sensors with paired, mounted lenses that are precisely focused on application-specific distances.

These ready-to-use optical sensor modules feature defined electrical integration, optimized ISP and fine-tuned output to ensure the best off-the-shelf image quality for machine vision devices. 

FSM:GO optical sensor modules  

FSM:GO optical sensor modules are available in three main variations, featuring Sony Starvis2 sensors – 2MP (IMX662), the 8MP (IMX678), and the 12MP (IMX676), carefully selected and tailored to deliver the best image quality and optimal performance across a diverse range of applications. 

With options from 2MP to 12MP, developers have more alternatives to choose from for their vision project requirements. Additionally, these configurations adapt to multiple fields of view, diverse lighting situations, and varying working ranges, making the modules versatile for a wide array of applications. 

From the hardware perspective modules are overarching by a complete set of hardware components, software drivers, ISP tuning packages, and extensive documentation. The integrated FRAMOS PixelMate™ connector, offering an array of connection options such as MicroCoax, FFC, and GMSL, ensures engineers have the adaptability to select the ideal cabling based on system specifications or application demands.   

From the software perspective all this ensures seamless integration with leading embedded processing platforms NVIDIA’s Jetson and NXP i.MX8MP empowers developers to use the full potential of these platforms for maximum performance. 

The other main thing that sets FSM:GO apart is its versatility as both a prototyping tool and a solution ready for immediate deployment in mass production. 

The new launch showed FRAMOS’ commitment to solving development problems and resolving challenges in the manufacturing of vision products, as they are allowing customers to focus on device design and software development and giving them confidence in the reliability and performance of their vision solutions. 

Choosing the right optical sensor module is easy

If you are not sure which module to choose, FRAMOS provides a solution to that problem with the FSM: GO Configurator, a tool designed to simplify the selection of options for combining optical sensor modules. 

Configurator empowers developers and production engineers to customize their optical sensor modules with flexibility according to their specific project requirements. With an intuitive interface, users can effortlessly select from a range of options, including sensor resolution, lens type, field of view, and additional features. 

FSM:GO configurator as a user-friendly tool simplifies the complex task of module selection and provides real-time feedback – simple explanation of each option, enabling users to visualize their selections instantly. By putting customization at their fingertips, the FSM:GO Configurator accelerates the selection of rapid deployment of tailored optical sensor modules in a wide range of applications helping customers to choose their vision system. 

In conclusion, FSM:GO by FRAMOS is revolutionizing embedded vision development by offering a comprehensive, hassle-free solution that caters to the diverse needs of vision system developers and production engineers.
