Colour camera system has a choice of heads

The IK-M44A is a high-performance remote-head colour camera system with a choice of three optional camera heads.

New from Toshiba Digital Solutions Division, the IK-M44A is a high-performance remote-head colour camera system with a choice of three optional camera heads.

The camera's design, focused on versatility, high-resolution imaging and rugged mechanical and easy-to-install features, provides added flexibility for applications in medical, broadcast, machine vision, microscopy, endoscopy, nondestructive testing and scientific imaging.

Without requiring readjustment or electrical adaptation, the IK-M44A camera control unit (CCU) switches from any of its available three camera heads, helping users perform a variety of professional imaging tasks.

Customers can choose from a third-inch CCD micro miniature "lipstick" camera head (IK-UM44H), the slightly larger half-inch CCD camera head (IK-M44H), or the C-Mount camera head (IK-C44H) which is suitable for use with a wide selection of optics and couplers.

All three heads have high sensitivity for low-light usage, along with horizontal resolution (NTSC) of more than 470 TV lines and more than 350 TV lines vertical.

The cameras are remotely controlled via the CCU by a flexible cable up to 30m long.

Compact (85 x 40 x 156mm) and lightweight, the CCU is ideal for space-sensitive areas.

The interlace scanning system has a feature set that includes an effective scanning area of 6.54 x 4.89mm (half-inch format), along with 46dB signal-to-noise ratio, AGC, RS232C control, external sync, precise white balance, and an electronic shutter (1/60 to 1/10,000s) for fast moving objects.
