Smart cameras target industrial apps

NI 1722 and NI 1742 smart cameras are embedded devices that combine an industrial controller with an image sensor. They are shipped with the company's Vision Builder for Automated Inspection, an interactive software environment for configuring, benchmarking, and deploying machine-vision applications without programming. The cameras also integrate with LabVIEW software. Built for use in harsh industrial environments, the NI 1722 features a 400-MHz PowerPC processor, and the NI 1742 features a 533-MHz processor. The monochrome VGA (640 x 480) image sensor used in both cameras is a Sony CCD.
