The Spyder2 is a small, fast and cost effective camera boasting a full feature set and a Base Camera Link interface. The Spyder2 is over 40% more sensitive than the original Spyder, but its single output, 14 µm pixel size and 100% fill factor remain unchanged. For each available resolution (512, 1024, and 2048 pixels), Spyder2 provides appropriate, readily-available standard lens options. OEMs employing Spyder in their current imaging systems can look forward to a smooth transition to the Spyder2 camera.

With a full feature set including flat-field correction, CDS, full control of gain/offset, and Camera Link interface, the Spyder2 brings high-end functionality to mid-range applications. In response to market demands for greater versatility and higher bit depth, DALSA incorporated into Spyder2 much of the flexibility and functionality of its high-end Piranha2 cameras.
