Modular FireWire camera series supports IEEE-1394 FireWire "a" and "b" ? which provides data-transfer rates up to 80 Mbyte/s. Five models are available (monochrome and color versions) with resolutions from VGA up to 2 Mpixels. The cameras offer functions such as gain, offset, and exposure time settings, as well as binning and true partial scan (ROI) readout modes. The image data buffer that has been upgraded to 32 Mbytes ensures that all image data are transmitted securely and reliably and at very high speeds, even when used in multicamera applications. The housing design, suitable for industrial environments, is 36 × 36 × 55 mm. In addition to FireWire, the software interface also supports Gigabit Ethernet and is designed for future 64-bit PC architectures and platforms such as .NET.
