Triple-CCD camera is a first for machine vision
Three-CCD camera is designed for easy integration into any machine vision system that requires high resolution and precision colour definition.
Video camera for machine vision
Colour industrial video camera measures 44mm wide by 44mm high by 78mm deep and weighs 155g, and can be integrated into a high speed machine vision system.
High sensitivity (800-line resolution) plus interchangeable heads combine to make this video camera ideal for a variety of industrial, entertainment and R and D applications.
Toshiba's IK-TU51 camera provides real-time imaging with 10bit digital signal processing.
The imager offers a frame memory for continuous video imaging in integration mode, a freeze frame function, and a user-selectable one or two pulse triggering mechanism.
Key features include 0.02 lux (at 4 second exposure), a 14-step detail enhancement capability and a six vector colour enhancement circuit.
Toshiba recently announced that the IK-TU51 is integrated into the ASAP Imaging, a system developed by Apollo Telemedicine.
This telediagnostic medical imaging software allows a pathologist, via internet streaming video, to look at real-time high-resolution images from under a microscope over a network.
This unique imaging system helps doctors make quicker diagnoses, receive immediate second opinions, and consult or confer from anywhere in the world.
The IK-TU51 imager is based on the same advanced technology as Toshiba's popular IK-TF camera series featuring the three chip camera IT-CCD sensors and an RGB micro-prism system for accurate, computer-ready colour images.
Easy to integrate, the IK-TU51 is ideal for laboratory imaging, machine vision, microscopy, specialty broadcast and other tasks that require the flexibility of a twin-head, high resolution camera system.
The imager is available with an RS232C interface, both LVDS digital and RGB analogue outputs, and a standard C-mount lens flange.
