 Vision controls visual operator interface

BRIXEN, Italy -- TTControl - TTTech Off-Highway, a supplier of electronic control systems for off-highway vehicles, designed an innovative camera vision system. This visual operator interface allows machine operators to better keep their work environment in view, thereby increasing safety and productivity at work. Equipped with an LCD module and up to three cameras, the camera vision system is controlled by TTC Vision, TTControl's powerful visualization Using the computer to convert data into picture form. The most basic visualization is that of turning transaction data and summary information into charts and graphs. Visualization is used in computer-aided design (CAD) to render screen images into 3D models that can be viewed from all  unit.

Bad or limited view is one of the most frequent causes for accidents at construction sites. Operators with no or little vision reverse their machines and run down vehicles or workers. This often leads to damages to property and persons with tremendous downtimes in their wake. TTControl's innovative camera vision system is designed to avoid such dangerous situations.

This visual operator interface consists of a digital LCD module, a visualization unit and up to three analog PAL cameras. The cameras are designed for outdoor use, have an internal heater and are supplied by the video adapter See video capture board, video graphics board and display adapter.

 card. The LCD module provides adaptable illumination for changing light conditions and comes with a 6.5", 7" or 10" color display. Other LCD display models are supported at customer request.

At the heart of TTControl's camera vision system is TTC Vision. This visualization unit controls the views of the cameras and displays the machine parameters. Integrating the camera vision system with the vehicle application in a single LCD display is an enormous advantage, reducing production costs and increasing operating safety.

TTC Vision is originally designed for use in vehicles and machines that run in harsh environments and at extreme operating temperatures. Its robust injection-molded aluminum housing protects against electromagnetic disturbance and mechanical stress. TTC Vision can connect with both CAN and TTP TTP (thymidine triphosphate): see thymine.

TTP has its special focus on safety-critical high-speed applications. That results in low costs and a high protocol efficiency. ) networks.

TTC Vision provides both a Low Voltage Differential (hardware) Low Voltage Differential - (LVD) A method of driving SCSI cables that will be formalised in the SCSI-3 specifications. LVD uses less power than the current differential drive (HVD), is less expensive and will allow the higher speeds of Ultra-2 SCSI. LVD requires 3.  Signaling interface (LVDS (Low Voltage Differential Signaling) A transmission method for sending digital information. LVDS sends data over data high and data low lines rather than data and ground. ) and a PAL/NTSC interface. The user can interact with the control unit in three ways: by keyboard, by encoder A hardware device or software that assigns a code to represent data. See encode.
