IO Industries Flare 2M360-CL

The Flare 2M360-CL is a high-speed, high-resolution motion-capture camera designed for scientific imaging, industrial inspection and broadcast applications. Featuring a 2 megapixel CMOS sensor with global shutter operation, the camera delivers detailed image capture at high frame rates with low power consumption and low noise performance.

Note: This is a legacy IO Industries camera. Newer models may offer improved performance, workflow and support.

Flare 2M360-CL benefits

High-speed motion capture

The Flare 2M360-CL delivers frame rates up to 264 fps at full 2 megapixel resolution for high-speed imaging and motion analysis applications.

High-resolution CMOS imaging

Featuring a 2048 x 1088 pixel CMOS sensor, the camera captures detailed imagery for scientific, industrial and cinematic applications.

Global shutter performance

The pipelined global shutter design eliminates motion artefacts and uneven illumination caused by bright flashes during image capture.

Flexible ROI and subsampling

Adjustable ROI settings and subsampling features allow reduced-resolution output at significantly higher frame rates.

Low power and low noise

Designed for efficient operation, the Flare 2M360-CL combines low power consumption with low heat generation and low-noise performance.

Camera Link connectivity

The camera supports Camera Link Base, Medium, Full and Full 80-bit output configurations with PoCL support.
