High-speed, high-resolution, motion-capture camera
Producing highly-detailed images with a 4-megapixel resolution, the Flare 4M140CX, the fast-readout CMOS sensor is capable of producing 179 frames-per-second. However, adjustable region of interest settings and subsampling features allow lower-resolution output formats at much higher frame rates making all cameras in the Flare series a flexible proposition.tion analysis to automated optical inspection systems and more.rs feature pipelined technology which allows the sensor to expose a frame during readout of the previous frame - technology which enables fast frame rates.The global shutter also prevents motion artifacts as well as preventing uneven frame illumination due to bright flashed occurring during the exposure period.

Low power, low heat, low noise design
One of the factors that affects image quality the most is noise which can be introduced in a variety of ways including sensor temperature. To minimize the effect of temperature, the Flare 4MP camera is designed with low-power electronics and effective passive cooling making the overall power consumption under 4W and dissipating most generated heat convectively into the air, the all-aluminum chassis acting as a heat-sink for the internal electronics.

High, near-IR sensitivity
The Flare 4MP camera is available in three sensor types - monochrome, colour (Bayer) and NIR-enhanced monochrome with the same frame rate capabilities as the standard monochrome sensor, but with a thicker epitaxial layer to boost NIR sensitivity.

The Flare 4M180-CL can be combined with IO Industries' high-speed DVR to provide a robust motion-capture system
