With our new fast and compact 1.3 megapixel A622f camera, Basler Vision Components
(Basler-VC) is leading the trend toward Analog goes Digital. The A622f has a
global shutter and an IEEE 1394 interface. At full 1280 x 1024 resolution, the camera can
out-put up to 24 frames per second. By using the Area of Interest (AOI) feature, even
higher frame rates are possible.
When an A622f camera is combined with the Basler BCAM 1394 Driver and a standard 1394 PC
adapter board, it offers a low cost, plug and play solution. The reasonable cost and ease
of integration make these cameras especially attractive to analog camera users considering
upgrading to digital. In fact, the slim, compact shape of A622f cameras (29 mm x 44 mm x
65.7 mm) means that they will easily fit into the space occupied by many common analog
cameras without major changes to the mechanical mounting system. A622f cameras also
feature user definable I/O ports which add increased flexibility in in-dustrial
applications.
By using specially selected components and employing outstanding electronic design,
we achieved an image quality level that separates us from our competition. This camera's
versatility makes it appropriate for use in a variety of target markets. And since CMOS
technology does not have the blooming or smearing effect seen in many CCD cameras, it
makes the A622f ideal for outdoor appli-cations, said Dr. Joachim Linkemann, Vision
Components Product Manager. Prototype A622f cameras will be available in October and full
production release is scheduled for November 2004.
Basler-VC designs and manufactures advanced vision components for industrial users. Our
products include color and monochrome line scan and area scan digital cameras for
high-speed and/or high-resolution applications. Product designs are driven by industry
requirements offering easy interfacing, compact size, and a strong price/performance
ratio.
