Camera works jitter-free
VC4466 camera incorporates a Texas Instruments DSP and features an RS-232 and an Ethernet interface, as well as an external trigger input that enables jitter-free image recording. Standard equipment also includes a high-speed encoder interface. The VC4466 has a 1/3-in. CCD sensor with 1024 ? 768-pixel resolution and a maximum frame rate of 30 frames/s (60 frames/s in binning mode).

Stereo-vision system is easy to use
Bumblebee2 stereo-vision camera system contains two 1/3-in. progressive-scan CCD sensors and transmits left and right images to a PC via an IEEE-1394 interface. It includes the Digiclops and Triclops software development kits, enabling users to control camera settings, adjust image quality, and access real-time depth-range images using stereo-vision technology. Example programs and source code are also included.

Software guides cameras
Linux GigE Vision software-development kit (SDK) lets programmers control and capture images from the company's Gigabit Ethernet cameras. The cameras can now be used on Linux computers. The SDK includes sample code andworks on both x86 and PowerPC hardware. Data are received through the GigE port of the host computer so there is no need for a frame grabber.

Camera is custom
PicSight is a custom-designed series of cameras in which OEMs pick image characteristics (such as resolution, sensitivity) from the company's standard sensor modules based on CCD or CMOS sensors; then they select the image-transfer method (GigE, Camera Link) from the standard interface modules or choose in-camera processing with a smart processing module.

Camera has multiple uses
Camera Link camera has 1/2-in. progressive-scan CCD and can operate from 24 to 230 frames/s (with partial scanning). The camera has 10-bit Camera Link digital output, continuous-scan or out-trigger mode, and full-frame shutter speed of 20 ms to 3 s. The C-mount camera comes in a 62 ? 62 ? 35-mm package.

Camera has ROI windowing
High-frame-rate, high-resolution, short-wavelength-infrared (SWIR) camera, the SU640SDWH-1.7RT, is an indium gallium arsenide camera that has regions-of-interest (ROIs) windowing capabilities with high-sensitivity SWIR spectral response from 900 to 1700 nm. The 25-µm-pitch 640 ? 512-pixel FPA captures full-size images at 109 frames/s or can image smaller ROIs at greater than 15,000 frames/s with 100% fill factor.

Communication module aids production
Web Server Modules offer remote access from anywhere, making it possible to check status of products from either the office or factory floor in real time. The Web Server Modules can be used with several of the company's PLCs, including the FC4A MicroSmart, OpenNet Controllers, and the Micro3C. Features include remote maintenance; use of Internet Explorer or Netscape Navigator to monitor or update a PLC with a custom, built-in, monitor dialog box; and
password protection to secure the system.

Detector is QWIP-based
Compact, 640 ? 512, 20-µm pitch, TV-format compatible LWIR detector based on quantum-well infrared photodetectors (QWIPs), Sirius makes high-resolution IR detection more affordable to a wider range of customers. Sirius operates at 75 K
(-198°C). It uses a compact Stirling microcooler, which significantly reduces the size of other components in the IR detector and, therefore, lowers its cost.

Small IR camera has 25-µm pitch
The MIRICLE 307K incorporates a high-resolution, uncooled microbolometer and measures 1.5 ? 1.5 ? 1.5 in. Its 640 ? 480, 307,200-pixel detector with 25-μm pitch extends the scope, range, and applications in the security and surveillance markets. The camera is available in a choice of housings, including hermetically sealed, gas purged, and ruggedized for unattended field or aerial use.

Digital video recorders work in real time
DigitalSENTRY software, DS RealVue products are based on the Microsoft Windows XP Pro operating system. The DigitalSENTRY client software provides the ability to simultaneously view live or recorded video at full D1 resolution at 30 frames/s from up to nine channels over a network. There are two chassis configurations: DS RealVue RAID and DS RealVue Xpress.
