Alvium 1800 USB3 Cameras

Compact USB3 Vision cameras for industrial and embedded imaging applications

Alvium 1800 USB3 cameras use Allied Vision's customised application-specific integrated circuit to provide a flexible System-on-Chip platform for machine vision and embedded vision applications. The design removes the need for a conventional FPGA and gives Allied Vision greater control over camera features, power usage and product integration.

The Alvium 1800 U family combines compact, lightweight industrial hardware with a USB3 Vision compliant interface. Models are available in monochrome, colour, UV, NIR and SWIR versions, with resolutions ranging from 0.3 to 24.6 megapixels.

Alvium 1800 U wavelength options

Visible imaging

Monochrome and colour models provide a broad choice of sensors, resolutions and frame rates for general machine vision and embedded imaging.

UV cameras

Alvium 1800 U UV cameras are ruggedised cameras designed for capturing ultraviolet light across a wide range of specialised UV applications.

NIR cameras

Alvium 1800 U NIR cameras support near-infrared applications including surveillance, industrial inspection and other imaging tasks requiring extended spectral sensitivity.

SWIR cameras

Alvium SWIR cameras use Sony SenSWIR InGaAs sensors and provide sensitivity from 400 nm to 1,700 nm. The family includes models based on the Sony IMX991 and IMX990 sensors.

Key benefits

Flexible housing options

Selection of board-level, open or closed housings depending on the selected model.

Multiple lens mounts

Various lens mount options support straightforward hardware integration.

Wide sensor selection

A choice of sensors from 0.3 to 24.6 megapixels across visible, UV, NIR and SWIR variants.

On-camera processing

Image correction and preprocessing can be performed onboard, reducing workload on the host processor.

Lower system requirements

On-camera processing can allow a smaller host system to be used and may reduce overall system cost.

Simplified integration

Hardware and software integration features help reduce user development time.

Efficient power use

The camera supplies power for selected features while unused functions can be shut down.

Typical applications

Robotics

Low camera weight and strong image quality suit compact robotic imaging tasks.

Compact systems

Region-of-interest operation suits applications with limited space or where only selected image regions are required.

Medical imaging

Ultra-compact size and high image quality support applications such as pathology imaging.

Traffic surveillance

High image quality and multiple regions of interest support tasks such as licence-plate recognition.

Microscopy

Suitable for applications requiring quality images with very low noise.

Aerial mapping

High resolutions and image sequencing support aerial imaging under different capture conditions.
