This paper introduced a high-speed vision platform, JDP Express, which can record image sequences of 512×512 pixel at 2000fps as well as real-time image processing. IDP Express was also applied to a high-speed active vision system for target tracking to capture image sequences at high resolution, which were magnified by tracking a target in an image. Several experiments were actually executed for automatic high-frame-rate video recording by using image-based trigger, and the videos captured at a high frame rate were also shown to verify its effectiveness.
