IEEE-1394 digital camera technology without a PC
The Sony Digital Imaging Station (DFWS 77) enables non PC users to take advantage of high quality IEEE-1394 digital camera technology with its sharp low noise advantage
Stop Action refers to the camera's ability to integrate each pixel for the same amount of time at the same time by using a global shutter.
This is unusual in CMOS camera technology and essential for machine vision.
This, combined with LINLOG technology, that enables configuration of the sensitivity to be part linear and part logarithmic, delivering over 120dB of intra-scene dynamic range makes the 1M75 ideally suited to handling traffic management, industrial metrology and welding applications.
The 1M75 uses the base configuration of CameraLink providing two data channels of 8bit each running at 40MHz.
Also, by using windowing, the frame rate can exceed 100,000frame/s for example, at a size of 512 x 512 (one-quarter the 1024x1024 size) the camera can achieve speeds of 287frame/s. Request a free brochure from Firstsight Vision ...
