1400x1024 pixel mono hi-speed GigE Vision camera - Genie HM1400
1400x1024 pixel high-speed GigE Vision monochrome camera -
Genie HM1400
DALSA's new Genie high speed GigE Vision cameras are compact easy-to-use
digital cameras engineered specifically to accommodate most industrial
machine vision applications. Dalsa's high speed Genie cameras use Dalsa
exclusive sensor technology to provide unprecedented image acquisition
quality in a small compact form factor that allows them to be implemented
into most tight-fit applications that require high performance. With an
uncompromised signal-to-noise ratio all Genie high speed cameras transmit
digital images over the Gigabit-Ethernet interface with the use of standard
CAT-5e and CAT-6 cables for up to 100m. The Genie series comply with the
international GigE interface standard called GigE Vision released by the
AIA (Automated Imaging Association) and therefore are plug and play replaceable
with other GigE Vision cameras. They are supported with Sapera,
Dalsa's machine vision software offering fast, simple setup with unique
data reliability features.
The Genie HM1400 features 1400x1024 pixel resolution at capture rates
up to 75fps at full resolution and 300 fps at VGA resolution while maintaining
a crisp image quality. Its global electronic shutter with exposure control
allows the HM1400 to handle the capture of very fast moving objects. On-board
flat-field correction allows users to flatten the effects of uneven lighting
and to correct for pixel variations therefore simplifying software analysis.
The anti-blooming feature of the Genie HM1400 provides the ability to
minimise artifacts due to the effects of very bright points or areas of
an image. Unlike many other GigE cameras the Genie series are compatible
to most gigabit ethernet chipsets and do not rely on some specific features
of a limited number of chipsets on the market. They produce high data
rates over networks with very limited CPU involvement, leaving the CPU
for image processing tasks.
DALSA's Sapera software enables users to benefit through its fast
and simple camera setup. As soon as the camera is connected to the system,
auto discovery automatically identifies the camera and communicates all
of the supported features to the Sapera environment greatly facilitating
system setup and configuration. Moreover the Genie Framework package found
in the Sapera software employs DALSA's Trigger-to-Image reliability
framework. This allows it to dependably capture and transfer images from
the camera to the host PC. Trigger-to-Image reliability (T2IR) is an engineering
design framework exclusive to Dalsa, ensuring the reliability of the image
acquisition system by supplying the key design elements needed to:
1) Secure the image acquisition process
2) Permit error identification, and
3) Provide a recovery mechanism if and when errors do occur
