AF00003101 A622f Sales Kit Distributor_1_0001.jpg (28354 bytes)Ahrensburg, October 19, 2004 – 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.
