Latency and determinism in GigE Vision systems
PC interface boards can decrease jitter.
Two of the most important factors in determining whether a GigE-based camera system should be used in a machine-vision application are latency and determinism. In this context, latency can be defined as the time it takes to complete an event. When occurrences of a specific event are repeated, the time to complete the event becomes variable; this is known as jitter.
