Especially light-sensitive: VC4067 EXview from Vision Components

The sensor technology enables the camera to analyze even long wavelength light near the infrared spectrum, thereby ensuring very precise image recording. The 2/3" CCD sensor has a 1,280 x 1,024 pixel resolution and provides a maximum frame rate of 14 fps. Featuring an integrated 400 MHz processor from Texas Instruments, the VC4067 EXview has a computing power of 3,200 MIPS. It exe-cutes even complex image processing routines, thereby rendering additional PCs unnecessary. Standard camera models are equipped with 4 MB Flash EPROM and 32 MB DRAM for program and picture storage, which can be op-tionally extended with a 128 MB SD card. Additionally, the Smart Camera comes with an RS232 and an Ethernet interface and an external trigger input that enables jitter-free image recording even at high reading frequencies. Standard equipment also includes four digital PLC inputs and four outputs. An external monitor can be connected to the camera's integrated SVGA video output for maintenance and testing purposes.
