Camera offers alternative to 3CCD technology
DECEMBER 10, 2009--Equipped with the patented CIELAB engine that offers advanced real-time color processing, the TXG06ac camera requires one CCD sensor to deliver high-quality color images comparable to those taken by 3CCD cameras. The camera captures images with resolutions of 776 x 582 pixels. Appropriate for food, pharmaceutical processing, and life sciences applications, the camera can identify the nuances of colors within a narrow color palette for consistent and repeatable color image quality. A generic programming interface, Baumer-GAPI, facilitates the camera's integration. A software development kit (SDK) includes all libraries, help files, and drivers for camera control.
