Boardlevel camera for precise images of fast moving objects
- Details
- Hits: 4272
Basler (Distribution Rauscher) has expanded the "Dart" camera series: the daA1600-60um and daA1600-60uc with the e2v sensor EV76C570 offer outstanding image quality. This e2v sensor with a pixel size of 4,5 x 4,5 µm offers a maximum image circle of 1 / 1.8 inch and is the largest sensor in dart cameras. The cameras are suitable for use in industrial microscopy with the required color fidelity and color rendering as well as real-time transmission. Likewise, the classic 4: 3 format used here causes the image circle of the microscope to be optimally exploited by the sensor.
The Dart delivers a speed of 60 fps with the Global Shutter Sensor. With a manually adjusted ROI (Region of Interest), the frame rate can be increased. The board level cameras are suitable for applications in automation, microscopy, intelligent traffic systems (ITS) and robotics vision applications.
