Sensor gives security
MT9P031 1/2.5-in. CMOS sensor has high resolution allowing it to evaluate a small sensor area that can be arbitrarily positioned and displaced (pan/tilt function) on the entire chip surface. High readout speed, rapid automatic exposure control, as well as an autofocus function are features that enable a very small shot-to-shot delay. With its operating temperature range of 30°C to +70°C, the MT9P031 is optimal for outdoor applications.

Lighting reaches out
Vicolux SPOT50 series is suitable for lighting tasks requiring large distances between the lighting and test object. Adjustable and lockable focusing optics produce spot diameters from 50 to 200 mm. SPOT50 lighting can work over large lighting distances, such as are typical in robotics. Also, the new lighting is suitable for applications in which cramped conditions hinder the use of lighting from short distances.

Linescan camera has high resolution
High-resolution color linescan camera, the MCS 7300, reaches a maximum line frequency of 7.7 kHz and a data-transfer rate of 180 Mbytes/s at a resolution of 7300 pixels. Through a modular system of lens adapters, the MCS camera can be combined with all standard lenses. During image capture, continuous white balancing ensures a consistently high color quality.

Polarized ringlight reduces glare
The RL-9 high-output LED ringlight comes with a polarizing option that diminishes glare from reflective objects. It functions by allowing light from the device's LEDs to pass through a polarizing film before illuminating the object. Light bounces off the object and passes through an analyzer before arriving at the eye of the operator or the lens of the camera.

Software is for microscope cameras
Version 2.1 of the camera control and image capture software for ProgRes microscope cameras comes with extended measurement functionality, optimized time-lapse image capturing, and more comfortable handling. Software now offers more measurement functions. It is possible to conduct an unlimited number of measurements such as line, ellipse, angle, rectangle, polygon, and freeform in both the live and the captured image. Time-stamp protocol files provide an easy follow-up to captured sequences.

Sensor is unconventional
Vision sensor MD535V2A1 features ultrawide operating range thanks to an auto-exposure principle using integration time measurement at the pixel level. The sensor includes on-chip analog computation of magnitude and direction of image contrasts. A temporal ordering of this information according to the contrast magnitude is used to reduce the amount of data delivered. Each feature set (contrast, di?rection, and luminance) can be output independently for each frame.

Digital camera displays live images
DP20 digital camera offers easy-to-view live display of high-resolution images at 15 frames/s and stand-alone operation. The 2-Mpixel CCD DP20 digital camera does not require a PC for operation and can interface directly with a monitor or projector. The camera produces 1600 ? 1200-pixel images, which can be displayed on a UXGA high-definition monitor. Images can be stored in different resolutions onto an up-to-4-Gbyte Compact Flash card and can be transferred to a PC via USB 2.0.

Program enables bridging
Serial RapidIO-to-PCIe Bridge IP Core is designed for applications that require high-bandwidth bridging between PCI Express devices and Serial RapidIO fabrics and devices. It bridges a 4X serial RapidIO port, operating up to 3.125 GHz, to an 8X PCI Express port operating at 2.5 GHz, through an intelligent nontransparent bridge. It features complete protocol translation, an optimized dual-channel multithreaded DMA engine, and a pipelined PCI Express-to-RapidIO mapping table.

Camera captures finer details
CS3930UV machine-vision camera uses near-UV light to see superficial defects, such as scratches or dust. Equally effective in document proofing and microscopy, the CS3930UV's 1/2-in. progressive-scan CCD is sensitive to light below the visible spectrum up to 240 nm to yield measurement accuracy approximately twice that of standard machine-vision cameras operating with white or red light.

Camera works in low light
Li045 Intelligent Network Camera is available in the UK through BFi OPTiLAS. It uses Texas Instruments DaVinci technology to deliver advanced image processing, video analytics, and a variety of compression techniques. The Li045, with onboard video analytics, is designed for security applications in difficult lighting conditions. It provides ultrawide dynamic range of +120 dB, 30 frames/s at full 720 x 540 resolution, and JPEG and H.264 compression.
