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.
The CCD cameras are available in colour or monochrome models, with landscape or portrait orientation and with in-line or vertical connection orientation to ease integration.
Cameras are fitted with a C-mount with adjustable back focus or an optional CS-mount.
The GigE Vision-compliant Gigabit Ethernet interface allows cable lengths of up to 100m long using conventional Ethernet cabling (Cat5e).
The GB series cameras feature progressive scan Sony CCD sensors for high image quality and excellent sensitivity and are most suited for applications such as machine vision, industrial inspection, avionics, traffic monitoring, license plate reading, public security, intelligent transportation systems (ITS), character recognition, biometrics, robotics and surveillance.
The GB series includes the GB650, GB660, GB1380H and GB2450 models, ranging from VGA to 5Mpixel resolution and full resolution frame rates to 120 frames a second.
Higher frame rates are possible using region of interest readout and/or advanced binning modes.
Te GB series incorporates features including snapshot/global shutter, pixel binning, area of interest readout, external trigger and sync I/O, auto-iris control, RS-232 peripheral port, exposure, gain and offset controls, nonvolatile configuration memory, event recorder capability, pre-trigger recording, programmable strobe functions, multicasting, configurable IP addresses, auto exposure and auto white balance controls.
It supports Windows (2000, XP and Vista), Linux and QNX operating systems on both Intel and Power PC platforms.
For users that prefer third-party imaging libraries and applications, Prosilica's GigE Vision cameras are plug-and-play compatible with software from Matrox, National Instruments, Stemmer Imaging, Norpix and MVTec. Request a free brochure from Lambda Photometrics ...
