JAI's AD-080GE prism-based, 2-CCD progressive area scan camera is designed
around Sony’s ICX-204AK & Sony ICX-204AL progressive scan CCD
sensors (1024 x 768 pixels) delivering 30 frames per second in continuous
operation and up to 85 fps using partial scan. It is capable of simultaneously
capturing visible and near-infrared light spectrums through the same optical
path using two individual channels: the first channel has a Bayer mosaic
color imager that captures visible light, while the second channel has
a monochrome sensor for capturing near infrared light.

The prism inside the AD-080GE camera splits
the light in two channels. The visible light channel captures the
red, green and blue bands of conventional imaging. The 2nd channel
blocks visible light and detects only near-infrared to capture imperfections
the human eye can't see.

JAI’s specific manufacturing process enables high-precision bonding
of 2 image sensors onto Jai's in-house designed prism optics. True multi-spectral
information is secured from each channel, as the visible and NIR spectra
are separated by the dichroic coatings of the prism. (The separation wavelength
is 760 nm).
The camera features built-in pre-processing functions which include:
** blemish compensation
** shading compensation
** Bayer to RGB interpolation
** LUT/gamma correction
** knee control.
Separate exposure times for each channel allow mutual adjustment without
changes in gain, maintaining a consistent signal-to-noise ratio.
A comprehensive software tools and SDK for Windows XP/Vista is available.
What are the benefits
of deploying the AD-080GE camera? |
*** |
The AD-080GE
camera is an excellent substitute for two-camera solutions,
reducing costs and avoiding deployment issues such as the need for
two-camera alignment. |
|
|
*** |
Being multi-spectral the camera is designed for where there is a
need for a perfect overlap of the visible image and the NIR
image. |
|
|
*** |
This prism-based camera enables the capturing of objects that are
different sizes or at different distances and yet maintain pixel correlation.
An image task can only be handled by a prism-based solution. |
|
|
*** |
Another advantage of the AD-080GE is in situations
where the surface of an object is to be checked with the visible spectrum
channel while the damage below the surface is inspected by the NIR
component (eg fruit and vegetable inspection) |
|
|
*** |
Simplicity – one camera, one lens, one power supply, one set
of cables, simple light source setup |
What are typical applications for the AD-080GE
camera?
*** separation
of food and non-food objects (e.g. stones or plastic items).
*** inspection of medical
blister pack or other plastic film containers where the visible channel
inspects the print on the surface and the NIR channel inspects the contents.
*** print inspection of
banknotes, passports and tickets, electronics inspection
*** wafer inspection
*** surface inspection of
textiles, wood and metals
