New strategic collaboration between FRAMOS and NXP Semiconductors to simplify embedded vision device development

FRAMOS, a leading global expert in vision systems, dedicated to innovation and excellence in enabling devices to see and think, is excited to announce a new strategic collaboration with NXP® Semiconductors, a world leader in secure connectivity solutions for embedded applications. 

NXP Semiconductors brings together bright minds to create breakthrough technologies that make the connected world better, safer and more secure. As a world leader in secure connectivity solutions for embedded applications, NXP is pushing boundaries in the automotive, industrial & IoT, mobile, and communication infrastructure markets.  

For more than 40 years, FRAMOS has been supporting and empowering clients worldwide in building pioneering vision systems, empowering breakthroughs in diverse sectors. 

Throughout all phases of vision system development and deployment, companies rely on FRAMOS’ proven expertise in component selection, consulting, customization, prototyping, and mass production. 

In this synergistic collaboration, FRAMOS joins NXP’s i.MX 8M Plus applications processors ecosystem partners in empowering the market, with its ready-to-use optical sensor modules based on the latest SONY Stavis 2 sensor technology and deep image processing expertise. 

Simplified Embedded Vision Device Development

The collaboration between FRAMOS and NXP starts with FRAMOS’ launch of FSM:GO optical sensor modules which are supported by NXP’s i.MX 8M Plus applications processors to simplify embedded vision device development without any additional calibration requirements.  

FSM:GO offers a curated selection of sensors paired with optimally focused lenses to deliver the best off-the-shelf image quality in each application. This latest innovation from FRAMOS represents a significant step forward in simplifying the embedded vision development process, making it both cost-effective and time efficient for the customers.   

Certified System Integrator Program

Set Yourself at the Forefront of the Global Vision Market

Vision system integrators certified by A3 are acknowledged globally throughout the industry as an elite group of accomplished, highly skilled and trusted professionals. You’ll be able to leverage your certification to enhance your competitiveness and expand your opportunities.

GET CERTIFIED

The image signal processor (ISP) on the NXP i.MX 8M Plus System-On-Chip (SoC) plays a key role in overall image quality. One of the obstacles camera and device manufacturers are facing today is the fact that very few image sensor module suppliers offer image calibration services along with their modules. Without the right equipment, image processing experience, technical training and support by the SoC vendor, it is difficult for a device manufacturer to take full advantage of an integrated, dedicated ISP engine in the SoC. 

Eliminates complexities  

FRAMOS’ FSM:GO optical sensor module portfolio eliminates the complexities of selecting sensors, optics, and image tuning by offering a path to easy integration and tested reliability.  With the new product launch, FRAMOS offers a selection of imaging products and services for embedding vision in machines and devices to NXP developers. 

FSM:GO optical module series is the first module series to offer the complete range of the latest Sony Starvis 2 technology.  

Solutions for broad spectrum of applications  

FSM:GO is suitable for a wide range of applications and can be used in many industries, e.g. in sports and video surveillance systems including machine learning gesture recognition using these images.  

With the NXP i.MX 8M Plus applications processor featuring machine learning, image processing, advanced multimedia and industrial IoT applications, FSM:GO expands the possibilities of conference cameras, drones, intelligent transportation systems, industrial automation, surveying, mapping and logistics. In addition, vision is a key requirement for mobile robotics, enabling them to perceive their environment for autonomous operation, object detection, avoidance, and human collaboration.
