Versatility: suitable for the detection of static or slow-moving objects, widely used in quality control, dimensional measurement, etc.
High resolution: capable of capturing high-resolution images, suitable for detail detection.
Easy to integrate: compatible with various image processing software and hardware, easy to integrate into existing systems.
In case an area scan camera is the right choice for your application and you need to incorporate color into your machine vision system, there are two different area scan options to consider for color imaging: Bayer mosaic and prism-based, multi-sensor technology.
In area scan cameras, a rectangular-shaped sensor captures an image in a single frame. The resulting image has a width and height that directly corresponds to the number of pixels on the sensor.
An area scan camera is able to capture an entire object in a 4:3 frame, and they are mainly used in various industrial lines such as security monitoring, product inspection, traffic inspection, etc. They are able to capture a 2D image in one exposure cycle.
