The new GE-series Gigabit Ethernet cameras from Prosilica are designed to conform to the AIA GigE Vision standard.
Infrared Imaging : The best gets better
Viewing infrared wavelengths between 0.4-1.5microns, the converted image produced by the new 7215 is now brighter and offers edge to edge sharpness.
Infrared Imaging at Telecomms Wavelengths
The widely used Electrophysics 7290A Micronviewer Infrared camera has now been enhanced with increased sensitivity at both 1310nm and 1550nm.
It sends non-compressed images at high-frame rates over standard Gigabit Ethernet hardware with cable lengths up to 100m.
Versions now shipping include the GE650, GE1350, GE1380 and GE1600 CCD cameras ranging from VGA to 2Mpixel resolution and full-resolution frame rates up to 200frame/s.
Colour models are available with on-board colour interpolation.
Features include region-of-interest readout of arbitrary size and shape and square binning modes up to 8 by 8 pixels.
An SDK and viewer program are available free of charge for integrating the cameras into customer applications.
The SDK includes source code so that system integrators and end users can incorporate the cameras into their applications.
"Prosilica's GE-Series cameras appear to be the only Gigabit Ethernet cameras currently available that conform to the draft AIA GigE Vision standard", said Prosilica CEO Marty Furse.
"Because Prosilica has designed all aspects of the GE-Series camera - all the hardware, all the firmware, as well as the SDK and driver - Prosilica can deliver a more integrated and robust product than many of its competitors who have chosen a third-party module and third-party SDK".
