Debugging
Memento is the debugging tool of the eGrabber ecosystem. During image acquisition, it records a detailed log of events related to the camera, the frame grabber and its driver, as well as the host application. The Memento driver records events such as driver function calls, callbacks, triggers received by the frame grabber, strobe signals sent to the light controller or camera control signals, along with precise time stamps and detailed context information. In the Memento application, users can display a list of these events with their associated time stamp and useful context information. The events listed are also displayed in a timeline. Different levels of verbosity are used to filter and display only the most crucial messages or to provide much more detailed log information. Additional display and highlighting options are available based, among others, on the origin or nature of the messages. Search features also allow you to find back messages based on their content. Memento assists developers during application development and debugging, as well as system operation. It helps them understand the behavior of the machine and pin down the cause of issues such as missed triggers or lost images.
Real-time recording
For applications that, for archiving or diagnosis purposes, require real-time recording of the video, eGrabber Recorder provides video recording services to hard drives. It is compatible with hard disk drives (HDD) as well as solid state drives (SSD). More particularly, fast SSDs (such as NVMe PCIe Gen 3×8 or Gen 4×4 M.2 SSDs) have become affordable and their bandwidth is now compatible with the requirements of the faster cameras available. eGrabber Recorder focuses on performance. The library has been highly optimized to efficiently and continuously store the video stream at the maximum bandwidth of these disks, up to their storage capacity.
Bridge to Open eVision
Open eVision is a set of image analysis libraries and software tools allowing the processing of images for text and code reading, matching and measurements, 3D processing and Deep Learning inspection. eGrabber Bridge gives access to these libraries by ensuring the smooth interfacing with the camera (handshake and data formats). It is completed by Open eVision Studio, a free evaluation and prototyping application allowing tuning, testing and code generation for the selected Open eVision libraries.
