Valde Systems has introduced the first camera designed specifically for outdoor autonomous vehicle operation. Now you don't have to choose between cheap, poor-quality security cameras and expensive, but fragile, machine-vision cameras.
The VS151 combines convenient size, ruggedness, and capability with a price you can afford.
Valde Systems Inc. builds high-performance vision processing systems that are compact, low power, and easy to embed. With a range of performance levels and configurations, there is sure to be a solution to meet your particular vision system requirements.
Customers can either work with Valde Systems to develop a software package custom-tailored to their requirements, or if they don't want to use their own software, they are free to use the ever-growing Valde Systems library of free user-developed functions. Valde Systems provides an open hardware platform complete with all the necessary low-level software drivers for developing custom applications, including those for manufacturing, security, and autonomous robotics.
For customers with standard requirements, Valde Systems also offers pre-loaded software applications that do not require any software development. Applications include low latency video encode/decode function for tele-operation, and image stabilization for use on vehicles traveling over rough terrain.
Valde Systems Inc. was established in mid 2003 by veterans of the telecommunications and R&D industries-skilled professionals who wanted to seize an opportunity to change the image-processing industry. Team members have extensive knowledge and experience gained through their work at various companies, including Lucent Technologies.
Valde Systems founder, president, and CEO, Matthew T. Linder, has worked in the electronics industry for almost two decades. He brings knowledge and experience to Valde Systems, and is particularly strong in the areas of engineering and product development. At Lucent Technologies Matt Linder worked on all phases of the company's cutting-edge, high-value equipment, so he is knowledgeable about all aspects of electronic product development, including high-speed DSPs. Matt Linder literally worked his way up through the industry, starting at the bottom doing assembly work, moving on to technician, to engineer, and finally, to system architect.
Along the way, Matt gained extensive experience in electronic product development and in new-product development and management. His thorough understanding of the image-processing industry means he can discern and appreciate customers' needs and then guide the development of useful, and therefore valuable, vision-processing products.
