Linescan camera triples responsivity

Linescan sensor technology delivers throughput rates of 80MHz for programmable camera that uses Gigabit Ethernet network interface for control and data streaming

The Spyder GigE is the latest in the Dalsa range of linescan cameras The model surpasses the performance of the previous Spyder 2 model with three times more responsivity, and by using linescan sensor technology it delivers throughput rates of 80MHz

Programmable, the camera uses a Gigabit Ethernet network interface for control and data streaming and is GigE Vision ready for when the standard rolls out.

The Quickcam GUI lets the user quickly configure the camera and begin imaging straight away, while the Quickcam SDK lets users develop their own applications.

Performing tasks such as flat field correction or setting line rates and exposure modes is simplified.

The GigE interface transfers images directly to host PC memory without the need for a frame grabber, thus reducing system costs.

This interface also allows for camera to PC separation of 100m (further with standard network switching hardware) and multicasting to multiple PCs for parallel processing operations.

Applications are in the fields of flat panel display inspection, postal sorting, wood, tile and steel inspection, 100% print inspection, food inspection, web inspection, container inspection and pick and place. Request a free brochure from Firstsight Vision ...
