The MultiBlue CCD camera is a multipurpose imaging camera for a wide variety of industrial applications such as semiconductor and pharmaceutical inspection.

Available from PerkinElmer Optoelectronics, the MultiBlue CCD camera is a multipurpose imaging camera for a wide variety of industrial applications such as semiconductor and pharmaceutical inspection "PerkinElmer's MultiBlue CCD camera provides a cost-effective choice for OEMs looking for a single CCD camera technology to support all of their application needs", said Norbert Burggraf, Product Leader, PerkinElmer Optoelectronics

The MultiBlue features a customised, modular design that gives OEMs a choice of imagers that can be incorporated into the camera.

By eliminating multiple camera platforms, a wide variety of imaging tasks can be completed quickly and easily, increasing lab productivity and reducing user training time and expense.

Through its temperature-stabilised design, the MultiBlue eliminates the need for expensive cooling, a savings of several hundred dollars per camera.

The camera's 12bit output depth provides up to a 34% increase of dynamic range over the typical 8-10bit industry standard.

The camera's USB 2.0 and an IEEE1394b FireWire interfaces provide dual "plug and play" connectivity and eliminate the need for costly frame grabbers.

The MultiBlue camera is Windows XP compatible, and includes an Eastman Kodak KAI-0340SM imager with a high-end pixel resolution of 640 x 480.

Other imagers are available on request.

The MultiBlue CCD camera is very competitively priced at under $750 in volume.
