COMMON FEATURES 

Industry Standard Design 

The mechanical components of every Point Grey camera are designed to maximize usability and 

minimize size. Every camera is equipped with a C or CS lens mount, ASA/ISO-compliant tripod 

mounting bracket, status LED, and removable glass/IR filter system. All cameras comply with the IIDC 

v1.32 camera control specification, which allows them to be used with many third-party software packages, such 

as those from Cognex ® , Matrox ® , MVTec , and National Instruments ® . 

Automatic Features 

Camera imaging parameters such as exposure, shutter, gain, and brightness can be controlled automatically by the 

camera, or manually programmed via software. Multiple cameras networked on the same IEEE 1394 bus are automatically 

synchronized to within 125µs (maximum deviation) of each other, and can synchronize across buses using Point 

Grey’s MultiSync software. 

Triggering and GPIO 

The general purpose input/output (GPIO) connector located on the back of every Point Grey camera is a programmable 

interface that allows the user to synchronize the camera with external devices such as light sources 

and GPS units. It can be programmed to accept external trigger signals that initiate the start of exposure, 

output a strobe to a light source, or send and receive serial data. 

Updatable FPGA 

The field-programmable gate array (FPGA) chip controls all camera functionality and can be updated with new 

firmware in the field.

FLyCAPTURE® 

The FlyCapture Software Development Kit (SDK) that comes free 

with every camera provides a common software interface to control all Point Grey 

FireWire, USB 3.0, USB 2.0 and GigE cameras using the same API under 32- or 64-bit 

Windows or Linux. FlyCapture supports ActiveX, TWAIN and DirectShow interfaces, 

and includes the FirePRO low-level 1394b interface driver, enhanced USB 3.0 

interface driver, and the GigE Pro image filter driver. A complete software API library, 

ready-to-use demo programs, and comprehensive source code examples enable users 

to easily build custom imaging applications. 

MULTIPLE PLATFORM 

The FlyCapture SDK is designed 

to provide users with the same 

interface under both Windows 

(XP, Vista, 7) and Linux (Ubuntu), 

32- and 64-bit platforms. 

MULTIPLE CAMERA 

INTERFACES 

The SDK provides the same 

programming interface across 

FireWire, USB and GigE products. 

SDK 

MULTIPLE PROGRAMMING 

LANGUAGES 

A simple object-oriented design 

provides users with the ability to 

program using their favorite 

interfaces, including C, C++, 

C#, Visual Basic .NET, ActiveX, 

DirectShow, and TWAIN. 

ADDITIONAL FEATURES 

• Support for new IIDC 1.32 

features such as frame buffering 

and lookup table functionality 

• OpenGL support for better display 

performance and CPU usage 

• Managed interface to decrease 

development time 

• Simpler application programming 

interface (API) - only 3 function 

calls required to grab an image 

• Increased control of buses 

• More example programs and 

source code 

• Not dependent on licensed OS 

and development tools

Every FirePRO IEEE 1394b 800 Mb/s product goes through an intensive testing process to ensure compatibility with 

other FirePRO products and select Point Grey cameras, such as Flea2 or Grasshopper. In addition, FirePRO products are backed by 

an industry leading 2-year warranty and quick response e-mail and phone support. From large multi-camera arrays to single camera 

systems, this allows systems integrators and developers to quickly build fast and reliable imaging pipelines. 

FirePRO components maximize system stability through the use of locking screw connections and external power inputs, and 

minimize downtime due to bus resets or hardware failures. Locking screw connectors / ports not only guarantee a reliable connection 

through the entire 1394b network, but also reduce stress on internal electronics that can be caused by cable movement. 

FireWire cables also carry both data and power, minimizing the need for additional cables or external power sources.
