pco.1200 hs / pco.1200 s
This high speed 10bit CMOS camera system comprises advanced CMOS and
electronics technology. With the new approach to integrate the image memory
into the camera itself (camRAM up to 4GB), it enables unmatched fast image
recording with 1GB/s (hs) / 820MB/s (s). The system features an excellent
resolution (1280 x 1024 pixel) and low noise. It consists of a compact camera
with an external intelligent power supply. The image data are transferred via
customer selectable standard data interfaces to a computer (IEEE 1394a Firewire,
Camera Link). The available exposure times range from 1µs (50ns opt.) to
5s (hs) / 1µs to 1s (s). This digital camera system is perfectly suited for high
speed camera applications such as material testing, fast inspection, external
crash tests or super slow motion image recordings for video clips and advertising.
