Jai C3 Industrial Camera Suite

Unlimited Digital Switchability

JAI have recently introduced the innovative digital C3 Camera Suite – a range of new industrial cameras developed with a bold vision: to allow system designers to switch among every conceivable vision application with minimal effort.

The new C3 Camera Suite is a complete digital machine vision camera family based on Jai's Core Camera Concept (C3). JAI’s Core Camera Concept (C3) suite consists of three product tiers:

• Compact
• Basic
• Advanced

Each tier offers a range of high-performance cameras with individual capabilities, putting unparalleled functionality at users’ fingertips.

With JAI’s new C3 Industrial Camera Suite, you can have it all!

• One core concept
• One interface 
• One simple choice

All the cameras share the same control and configuration methods and integrate quickly and simply with all compatible applications. This uniformity makes switching among models effortless – a key benefit for busy System Integrators and Original Equipment Manufacturers tasked with installing diverse and complex machine vision solutions.

All C3 cameras integrate smoothly with third-party software libraries, and all are backed by JAI's comprehensive Software Development Kit, ensuring straightforward configuration.

All C3 cameras offer:

• Standardized interface
• Common Software Development Kit
• Monochrome and color versions
• Industrial Gigabit Ethernet connectors with thumb-screws for GigE models
• Programmable General Purpose Inputs / Outputs (GPIO)
• Opto-isolated inputs and outputs
• Flexible system architectures with up to 100 meters of cable for GigE models
• Round-the-clock global support
• Constantly updated online resources

Switch to total flexibility
JAI’s C3 cameras are built for a wide range of industries, so they offer the diverse functionality to do it all – and the uniformity to make switching among models effortless. System designers can choose from over 16 models – with resolution ranging from VGA to 16 million pixels. All models in the C3 Compact, Basic, and Advanced tiers are interfaced and controlled in precisely the same way, allowing users to quickly switch from the simplest to the most complex applications without learning new technology, reconfiguring cables, or working with multiple Software Development Kits.

Switch to faster, easier integration
The C3 Camera Suite makes it simpler than ever to integrate cameras into machine vision solutions. System Integrators and Original Equipment Manufacturers can switch between the three tiers without changing any cabling or software.

C3 Advanced:
High-end cameras designed to handle the most demanding applications, C3 Advanced cameras combine the finest analog and digital circuit designs. The result is the ultimate high-performance cameras.

C3 Basic:
Versatile and flexible, C3 Basic cameras are in the mid-range tier. They offer superb thermal management and pre-processing – and guarantee the right image, every time.

C3 Compact:
Entry-level cameras offering small form factor, uncompromised image fidelity – and an easy switch from analog compact cameras to a digital platform.

The C3 Camera suite is continually growing to provide you more opportunities. March 2008 saw the release of four additional digital progressive scan GigE cameras - CM-040GE, CB-040GE, CM-080GE and CB-080GE which completed the Compact camera family.

The C3 Suite is now comprised of the following Industrial camera models but continues to grow:
