Matrox Imaging 4Sight-II now runs Windows XP Embedded

„June 3, 2003, Rosemont, Illinois – Matrox Imaging is pleased to announce that its Matrox 4Sight-II integrated industrial vision computer is now available pre-installed and pre-configured with the Windows® XP Embedded operating system. “Windows® XP Embedded allows OEMs to deploy highly customized, feature-rich embedded applications with a reduced footprint and a high level of reliability and performance,” says Fabio Perelli, Product Manager for Frame Grabbers and Stand-alone Systems for Matrox Imaging.\r\n
\r\n
\r\nWindows® XP Embedded, a componentized version of Windows® XP Professional, is under the umbrella of Microsoft’s embedded operating systems that are designed for custom embedded applications running on non-desktop computers/devices, such as industrial controllers, medical monitors, and specialized imaging platforms..\r\n
\r\n
\r\nRunning Windows® XP Embedded on Matrox 4Sight-II has a number of advantages over other operating systems, including the same user interface as Windows® XP and most of its professional features: platform development tools; easier and faster redistribution; reduced footprint; and above all, lower costs. Windows® XP Embedded also includes a write filter, which permits a smooth recovery after unexpected power downs.\r\n
\r\n
\r\nMatrox 4Sight-II offers a pre-configured, pre-installed, tested and validated Windows® XP Embedded imaging platform. Matrox Imaging also provides the developer/OEM the required configuration files to generate custom Matrox Imaging Library (MIL)/Windows XP Embedded images for their target systems.\r\n
