Camera resolves to improve machine vision
The TM-1325, newest in JAI Pulnix's line of Accupixel series cameras, is a miniature high-resolution (1.4Mpixel) monochrome progressive scan CCD camera.
Camera puts colour into machine vision
The TMC-6700CL is a progressive scan CCD digital colour camera that features a half-inch CCD imager with 640 x 480pixel resolution at 60frame/s.
The camera's 640 x 480 resolution imager has 7.4um square pixels.
It also features both analogue and gigabit Ethernet output that is 8 or 10bit software selectable.
The video is optimised by JAI Pulnix's exclusive, patent-pending built-in lookup table (8bit only), which permits maximum dynamic range control.
The TM-6740GE features full asynchronous reset with electronic shutter up to 1/64,000s or pulsewidth exposure control, which allows triggered image capture and processing.
The TM-6740GE's integrated API and dual-tap Accupixel GUI allow the user to be up and running in minutes.
The GUI gives the user control of all camera settings and acquisition modes, including gain, A/D reference, partial scan, and binning.
Changes in the camera's acquisition modes trigger automatic updates to the API for easy image acquisition.
CPU usage is only a few percent, thanks to the TCP/IP offload engine.
All of this high performance is available in a miniature 50.8 x 50.8 x 85.1mm housing.
Other features include automatic dual-channel compensation, and a built-in pattern generator.
Applications for the TM-6740GE include machine vision, medical imaging, intelligent transportation systems, high-definition graphics, gauging, character recognition, robotics, and surveillance.
This camera is available in a monochrome format (TM-6740GE) or with a Bayer CFA (TMC-6740GE).
The TM-6740GE is available now.
Volume pricing is available on request.
