Modular Image Acquisition and Playback System proFRAME Baseboards
Plug-in cards with powerful FPGAs from partner Solectrix Systems for real-time data processing and accurate timestamping
System core with proFRAME camera adapter slot for up to 8 cameras, supports different adapters depending on hardware generation and product model
proFRAME 3.0 Baseboard CompactPCI Serial
The third-generation proFRAME baseboard debuted as CompactPCI® Serial (CPCI-S.0), which delivers four times the data rate of its predecessor to support state-of-the-art automotive cameras.
The substrate is based on the AMD Zynq™ UltraScale+ ™ ZU4CG MPSoC architecture, which delivers up to 40 Gbit/s data transfer rates for each of its new camera adapter interfaces.
The corresponding camAD3 adapter module takes advantage of this by providing up to four camera inputs or outputs on a single adapter. proFRAME 3.0 adapters using GMSL2™, GMSL3™, FPD-Link™ III and FPD-Link™ IV (deserializer) are now available.
- Data Interface: PCIe® x8 Gen3 interface (64 Gbit/s) to CompactPCI® serial backplane
- FPGA: AMD Zynq™ UltraScale+™ ZU4CG MPSoC (FBVB900)
- Handling subsystems:Dual-core ARM® Cortex-A53™ MPCore™ up to 1.3 GHz
- Handles system memory: 2 GB DDR4 up to 150 Gbit/s
- DIMENSIONS: 3U CompactPCI® Serial (CPCI-S.0)
- Temperature range: -20 to +85 °C
- Matching accessories: ledAD3 Chassis, ledAD3 Expansion, proFRAME Synchronization

Product Advantages
Modular system consisting of three parts with system accessories
The proFRAME series of modular video capture and playback systems consists of proFRAME boards, camera adapters, and supporting software, which can be paired with system accessories.
for capturing, playing back and processing raw video streams in a variety of applications, supporting common transmission technologies such as GMSL2™ and GMSL3™, FPD-Link™ III and IV (other technologies available upon request).
In the automotive field it is often used to verify ADAS systems or autonomous driving functions, but also in industrialized applications such as medical technology, digital microscopy and EOL testing.
Validate ADAS/AD embedded control units as intermediate media
In Hardware-in-the-Loop (HiL) testing of ADAS or AD functions, theThe corresponding ADAS/AD embedded control unit (ECU) provides the driving scene in the form of a video stream recorded during the test drive.
The key to verifying ADAS/AD functionality is the ability to accurately play back individual video frames with time stamps during the recording process. AndThe proFRAME system in HiL enables precise and synchronized playback of driving scenes for efficient verification.
The system provides a variety of different camera adapters that can be used to playback video streams using common serializers on the market (GMSL, FPD-Link), with playback based on single-image frame timestamp information or external triggering.
For HiL systems based on the software platforms ROS or ADTF, special integration templates in the form of ROS™ kits (ROS 2) and ADTF plug-ins (ADTF) are available.
Provide proFRAME SW API to connect with corresponding software platforms, thus realizing fast integration between proFRAME and HiL system.
High-performance system captures multiple camera data streams
ADAS systems such as traffic sign recognition, lane assist, parking assist, and autonomous driving (AD) functions require efficient and accurate collection of real-time data from vehicle sensors, especially video data from embedded cameras.
Validation of these features requires synchronized capture of video streams from each camera, with corresponding timestamps, and storage. These driving scenes are then played back into the verified ADAS/AD ECU during hardware-in-the-loop (HiL) testing.
proFRAME provides the perfect solution, which supports most common automotive cameras and can record up to 8 simultaneous 4K video streams (including sideband communication I2C), and has been successfully used for many years in a variety of data recorders.
The timestamps of the input data are processed with high precision in the hardware and can be synchronized with other recording devices via an external trigger cable. The camera can be supplied with programmable voltage via a coaxial cable (Power over Coax, PoC).
Integration of digital mining equipment to realize data recording and analysis
Multi-phase data streams contain corresponding high-precision timestamps. proFRAME provides a bypass function that allows the streams to be processed with simultaneous acquisition of inputs and outputs.
Through the ATX4 high-performance in-vehicle server / BRICK2 digital mining platform, the data is stored, processed, and analyzed, realizing a complete closed-loop from in-vehicle multiphase camera image acquisition to the output of the analysis results storage.

Frequently Asked Questions
What transmission technologies are supported by the proFRAEM system?
- MaxicoM: GMSL2™ & GMSL3™
- TI: FPD-Link™ III and IV
- Sony Semiconductor: GVIF
- (Other technologies available upon request)
How does the proFRAEM system synchronize the multiphase machines?
proFRAME supports synchronization of multiple cameras per board and synchronization of multiple boards. With the proFRAME SYNC adapter, synchronization signals for camera triggering can be obtained from an external triggering source and triggering signals can be generated in our proFRAME boards. These signals can be sent to the camera or to an external trigger receiver, and the adapter is available in both I/O and Dual-Input versions.
What are the common application areas?
As proFRAME has the ability to capture, playback and process raw video data streams from a variety of applications. The system is used in the automotive field to validate ADAS systems, hardware in-situ testing or autonomous driving functions. proFRAME is also used in industrialized applications in medical technology, in the field of digital microscopy (e.g. sinaSCOPE, a 3D digital microscopy platform) and in end-of-line testing.
