Photonfocus announces it's new software release 2.32 with numerous updates and an advanced download area.  In this new release Photonfocus has combined all of their installers into a single installer. This simplifies the installation of the software with the exception of the GigE and the Sal3D software packages which require a separate installation due to their larger file sizes.

A readme file has been added to all SDK examples describing the migration from 32-bit to 64-bit environments. To further facilitate the switch in products from the discontinued USB 2.0 models to new camera models the new driver unit now supports the Intel ICH6 chip set.

For the Photonfocus 3D01, 3D02 and 3D03 cameras the new software release provides numerous new SDK examples. The software for the "Frame Combine Feature" has also been upgraded. Additionally we have provided new routines enabling the user to run the cameras independently from the 3D-suite and demonstrate how to efficiently grab 3D data.

For the fast DR1 GigE camera series, which features Photonfocus Double Rate technology, we enhanced the complete set of tools. Furthermore the new software has been integrated into the recently released DR1-D2048x1088(I/C)-192-G2-8 2MP camera which features the CMOSIS CMV2000 sensor.

The standard and 3D GigE camera tools have been enhanced to include many new practical SDK examples to demonstrate each camera’s capabilities. The Photonfocus GEVPlayer now supports the new DR1-D2048x1088(I/C)-192-G2-8 camera and includes Bayer color interpolation.

The Photonfocus package for HALCON is also an integrated element of the new PFInstaller. During the installation you can choose between the HALCON10 and HALCON11 programming environments which support all Camera Link, GigE and DR1 GigE camera models. Additionally we now provide extensive examples for HALCON C/C++ interfaces.
