High speed imaging comes at an
affordable price
The C10 puts high-speed imaging within the reach of users for whom these techniques were previously out of reach.
The capture of high-speed events is becoming increasingly important in a wide range of research and industrial applications Citius Imaging, based in Finland has many years experience in high-speed camera development and has now launched the C10 which puts high-speed imaging within reach of users for whom these techniques were previously out of reach

Vision system compares with CAD data
3D data measured with the new Comet Vario-Zoom 2M sensor (2Mpixel camera) can now immediately be compared with the corresponding CAD data online.
Vision software aids tyre development
In addition to fully automatic operation, Intact software from Steinbichler Optotechnik now also features a manual test mode for applications in tyre development.
The C10 uses a standard USB interface for digital data transfer, which comes as standard with all PCs and laptops.
The C10 can handle between 100 and 10,000 frames per second.
Depending on the memory used, the C10 can record sequences of up to 4min.
The 640 x 480 pixel detector gives outstanding images and due to the light intensity of the camera, only minimal external lighting will be needed.
The C10 software package (source code is freely available to users) operates under all Windows operating systems.
A numbers of innovative features enable users to employ a number of trigger options and there are options to display sequences and single frames.
The exposure time of the images can be as little as 10 microseconds and a standard C-mount allows the use of commercial microscopes and objectives.
As well as the C-10 for visible wavelengths we can also provide a range of thermal imaging cameras in the near, mid and far infra-red ranges.
The C-10 is attractively priced, and provides users in the lab, shop floor and in the field with a valuable tool for monitoring and understanding high-speed events.
Key applications include: automotive and transport (crash testing, engine monitoring etc); high-speed industrial processes (component positioning on ICBs, paper presses, mail sorting machines etc); sports event replays, research and training; prototype troubleshooting; and military and defence research applications For one-off applications and short-term projects, the C10 can be hired, with training available if required.
