DIRIS – Industrial Quality OEM Video Systems
Optimize video capabilities and reliability of your product with reduced complexity!
The company X-SPEX is developer and manufacuturer of the “DIRIS“ OEM video system. This is a collection of components for recording, processing, transmitting/streaming, and playing of video and audio for industrial grade applications. Control of DIRIS system can be performed either by buttons+LEDs and/or serial interface and/or network (incl. WIFI and/or UMTS/LTE). DIRIS systems for OEM customers are easy to manage and easy to integrate into products and applications.
At the Embedded World 2018 exhibition X-SPEX presents enhanced functions of the DIRIS B02-Boards
- Inputs: analog, HDMI/DVI, HD-SDI, Camera Link, BCON (supplier Basler)
- Konfigurable zoom
- Text overlay
- Simultaneous output to HDMI monitor and LVDS display
- Individualization/branding (grafics, text, font, …) can be performed by OEM-Kunden themselves
Configurations options of the DIRIS B02-Boards comprise perfectly matched interfaces for product integration. Typical individual components are NOT needed, like display controller und text generator.
Du to the small size of just 100 mm * 80 mm the DIRIS B02-Board ist well suited for integration into small products.
Application areas are industrial, medical, security, traffic applications and others.
DIRIS Product Groups
- DIRIS-Board compact PCB (multiple sizes) for housing integration into customers products
- DIRIS-Box independent, stand-alone devices with standard interfaces
- ZP moduls autonomous battery management for batteries and SuperCaps
- IO adapters standard sockets with ESD protection for rapid prototyping and simple product integration
- cables for internal and external connections, …
The modular concept of the DIRIS OEM video platform enables customer specific variations of standard products.
