Home » Products » Frame Grabbers » BitFlow
BitFlow has been developing industrial frame grabbers and software for the imaging industry since 1993. They specialize in interfacing with cameras with very high data/frame rates; working in environments with complex triggering and I/O requirements; and running in applications where every CPU cycle is precious. Bitflow’s software is some of the easiest to use, yet incredibly powerful and reliable.
BitFlow frame grabbers are supported by the following 3rd Party Software packages: A&B Software ImageWarp and ActiveBF, Aqsense SAL3D, Cognex Vision Pro, The Mathworks MATLAB, Media Cybernetics ImagePro, MVTec HALCON, National Instruments Labview, NorPix StreamPix and TroublePix, OpenCV, TWAIN, Stemmer Vision Blox, IO Industries Streams.

BitBox
The BitBox is BitFlow's new solution for high density I/O applications. Many machine makers require a large number of computer managed I/O signals for continuous control of the system state. This includes controlling devices such as strobes, solenoids, actuators, indicators, switches, encoders, and triggers, as well as gathering inputs from photo-detectors. In general, BitFlow frame grabbers come with a fairly large number of inputs and outputs, but for some systems this is simply not enough. Most customers end up purchasing another device to manage the I/O which adds expense, requires another slot, another driver and SDK, another manual, etc. The BitBox has been designed for just this situation. It is controlled completely from the frame grabber and uses the same API, driver, and manuals as the frame grabber. This saves time, money, and space. It is also straightforward and easy to use.
