These are some examples of applications using StreamPix. Most customers use StreamPix in proprietary applications, therefore, we cannot publish all of them.


Southeastern Surveying 1. Southeastern Surveying & Mapping Corp.

Multiple camera recording system based on Streampix4 with GPS time tagging.
Paper mill 2. Multi Camera inspection system for paper mill.

Paper mill test rig using 2 cameras acquiring at 200 fps each x 640 x 480 x 8 bits monochrome. Both cameras acquiring in real time using 1 computer.

5. NorPix would like to thank Mr. Daniel J. Gooding from the US Geological Survey for this contribution.
Mount St Helens located in the Cascades range in the State of Washington has been erupting since the Fall of 2004. A solid mass of dacite has been extruding to the surface for much of this period. To better understand the mechanics of this eruption new monitoring tools are being researched. Recording images near the vent to capture the developing growth of the emerging dome provides measurements of linear extrusion rates and helps investigate any possible correlations with seismicity, and/or ground deformation.
The current setup is using a Sony SX-XCD 910 camera, Matrox 4Slight with StreamPix digital recording software. The system operates by turning itself on at 8:00 am and shuts down at 6:00 pm (PST). StreamPix is set to record one image per minute and stores the data on a portable 120 gigabit hard drive using a firewire connection. StreamPix interfaces to a GPS clock that grabs the date/time for microsecond accuracy and saves the data to disk in the header of each image.
The system works on battery power (12 volts) using four 100 amps wet cell batteries which are charged by two 7 amp rated output solar panels.

6. High resolution high speed video sequence.

Recorded at 1280 x 1024 x 500 fps, with StreamPix rev 3.25, direct to RAM, using a Mikrotron MC1311 camera and a Matrox Odyssey frame grabber, with exposure set to 1/1000 sec. Sequence was compressed using the XviD codec. The codec must be installed in the computer to playback the sequence. Bayer color rendering performed as a post recording operation using StreamPix Bayer Converter plugin.
7. High speed video for Conveyor Belts.

This system creates a stream of high quality digital images from both the underside and the side of the conveyor belt so that inspection with reference to location can be performed.
