About Allied Vision
Allied Vision supplies area-scan, line-scan, smart, embedded, high-speed, short-wave-infrared and thermal cameras alongside lenses, frame grabbers and image-processing software. Interfaces span GigE Vision, USB3 Vision and CoaXPress, allowing systems to be configured around resolution, frame rate, spectral range and cable-distance requirements.
Vimba X provides a common GenICam-compliant SDK with C, C++, .NET and Python APIs across supported Allied Vision and TKH Vision cameras. The company also delivers application engineering and integrated imaging solutions where optics, lighting, acquisition and software must be designed together. Its combined catalogue exceeds 1,400 camera models across inspection, metrology, medical, scientific and automation systems. Since January 2026, Allied Vision has also unified the former Chromasens, Mikrotron, NET and SVS-Vistek brands, making their 2D camera lines part of the current Allied Vision offer.

Timeline
Events
- 2026-09-15 - Capability - Alecs gains visible-to-SWIR sensing and edge processing
The extended spectral response lets one camera capture visible and SWIR information for inspection and material-analysis workflows. Alecs combines the imaging sensor with onboard NVIDIA Jetson processing in an industrial smart-camera enclosure. The variant targets applications where spectral contrast and local AI inference must operate in one edge device.
Source - 2026-07-21 - Product Launch - Allied Vision launches SMR 10GigE high-speed recording camera
The 10GigE interface supports high-bandwidth recording over Ethernet while retaining integration with machine-vision infrastructure. The redesigned enclosure is intended for compact installations and thermally stable high-speed acquisition. The camera targets motion analysis, scientific recording and industrial processes requiring sustained frame capture.
Source - 2026-07-06 - Product Launch - Allied Vision launches FXO 100GigE machine-vision cameras
The interface is designed to move high-resolution image streams over standard Ethernet infrastructure at substantially higher throughput than 10GigE. The cameras target high-speed inspection, metrology and scientific-imaging systems with demanding bandwidth requirements. The launch extends the compact FXO platform beyond CoaXPress into Ethernet-based acquisition architectures.
Source - 2026-06-10 - Capability - Allied Vision releases GigE Vision 3.0 device IP core
The core is intended to shorten development of standards-compliant high-bandwidth imaging devices. Its FPGA implementation moves protocol handling into hardware and supports deterministic image transport. Allied Vision positioned the release for OEM camera makers and embedded-vision developers building custom devices.
Source - 2026-05-07 - Product Launch - Allied Vision launches compact 4-channel CoaXPress-12 FXO camera series
The FXO CXP cameras use Sony Pregius S global-shutter sensors and support data rates up to 50 Gbit/s. Allied Vision describes the cameras as compact, passively cooled and suitable for demanding vision systems. The event reinforces Allied Vision role in high-performance machine-vision camera supply.
Source - 2026-05-07 - Product Launch - Allied Vision launches four-channel FXO CoaXPress-12 camera series
The series uses Sony Pregius S back-illuminated global-shutter sensors and four CXP-12 connections delivering up to 50 Gbit/s. The 24.6 MP fxo935 models reach 192 frames per second, while the 12.4 MP fxo936 models reach 339 frames per second at 8-bit output. Both models use a 50 by 50 mm fanless housing, with flat-front and C-mount depths of 19 mm and 34 mm respectively.
Source - 2026-04-23 - Partnership - Allied Vision and QDI Systems partner on SWIR imaging
QDI Systems contributes quantum-dot detector technology intended to extend short-wave infrared imaging beyond conventional sensor approaches. Allied Vision contributes industrial-camera engineering, integration and global machine-vision distribution. The partners are targeting inspection tasks involving material differentiation and spectral information outside the visible range.
Source - 2026-01-15 - Org Change - Allied Vision unifies Chromasens and other 2D camera brands
The combined range brings area-scan and line-scan cameras, optics, frame grabbers and imaging software under the Allied Vision brand. A unified SDK is intended to control multiple camera series across the enlarged portfolio. Euresys remains a closely affiliated sister company, while LMI Technologies remains TKH’s separate 3D machine-vision pillar.
Source - 2025-11-18 - Product Launch - Allied Vision launches Alecs open smart camera
Alecs combines the Alvium camera platform with an NVIDIA Jetson Orin NX 16GB system-on-module. The camera supports Linux-based development and Euresys Open eVision libraries. The IP67 housing targets industrial machine-vision deployments.
Source - 2019-07-25 - Partnership - Antmicro and Allied Vision form embedded-vision partnership
The partnership built on a joint integration of Allied Vision Alvium cameras with Antmicro's real-time object-detection system on NVIDIA Jetson Xavier. The companies extended their embedded-software work across the NVIDIA Jetson series and multiple NXP platforms. Their joint offering combined industrial cameras with Antmicro hardware and software for robotics, UAV, automotive and other edge-AI systems.
