Cameras using highly sensitive sensor expand Dalsa's Genie family
Machine-vision technology company Dalsa Corp of Waterloo, Ontario, Canada, has added two new models to its Genie camera family.
Complying with the GigE Vision interface standard, the Genie C1410 and M1410 cameras feature a new, highly sensitive sensor, and are specifically designed for industrial imaging applications in the semiconductor, robotics and traffic-control industries, says the company.
The Genie 1410 features a charge-coupled device sensor from Sony (ICX285) and is available in colour (C1410) and monochrome (M1410) versions running at 22 fps. Additional features include global electronic shutter with exposure control; on-board flat-field correction; and on-board colour conversion (used by the colour model) to produce crisp and clear images. The system acts as a single machine-vision component - integrating both camera and board image-acquisition technologies in a single, small package. The camera also features an RJ45 'ruggedized', screw-mount cable connector, ideal for robotics applications.
The C1410 and M1410 are based on the Automated Imaging Association (AIA) GigE Vision Standard, enabling them to be directly linked to a personal computer. The cameras take full advantage of Gigabit Ethernet technology, transmitting data over standard CAT-5e and CAT-6 cables up to 100 m long. This enables the cameras to be positioned at some distance from the inspection system.
The cameras are supported by Dalsa's Sapera Essential software and its Genie Framework package which enable the systems to be set up easily and quickly.
Earlier this year, Dalsa introduced its first Gigabit-Ethernet-ready vision appliance - the IPD VA61. The system supports the full range of the firm's compact Genie cameras with a resolution of 640 x 480 to 1600 x 1200, with either a monochrome or colour output. The flexible GigE camera ports allow mixing of camera resolutions and easy expansion to support cost-effective, multi-camera applications. Such systems, for example, are often deployed in automotive plants to perform multiple-point inspections on assembled product.
The VA61 vision appliance can power and drive cameras locally, via dedicated system I/O connections, or interface with them remotely using Ethernet only.
