It is a challenge to obtain an accurate color representation on your video screen when imaging a scene from sunrise to sunset, e.g. imaging under changing lighting conditions. White balance is a function inside cameras to overcome this challenge. When a colorful scene is recorded without adjusting the white balance of the camera, the color…
SAPPHIRE quality plus Quad CXP configuration offers most reliable, low power implementation for ultra high-resolution, high-speed camera
At the 2016 Vision Show in Boston this week, Adimec demonstrated the new S-25A80/CXP as well as other metrology camera innovations.
With machine vision applications, some of the most important specifications beyond resolution and frame speed to determine whether the camera meet the measurement requirements, are full well capacity, Signal to Noise Ratio (SNR), and dynamic range (DR) specifications. Interpreting these values from specification sheets can be challenging though. The full well capacity and SNR definitions…
There is a move from CCD to CMOS daylight cameras in global security systems with the increase in low light performance (better NIR sensitivity and lower noise) of the latest CMOS global shutter image sensors. Here are several articles that offer some tips on how to take advantage of the latest technology:
Flat Field Correction in Machine Vision Cameras We recently published a series of articles about using Flat Field Correction in high-resolution Machine Vision cameras. In the first article we discuss what kinds of artifacts may be created by illumination optics and, we provide three suggestions of how to remove the influence of the light source…
In the weekend of 18th and 19th of June, Porsche won the 24 Hours of Le Mans after Toyota got into problems in the final seven minutes. This year, for the first time, Adimec’s rugged security cameras with highly sensitive CMOS Global Shutter technology where used to broadcast the driver’s view on the road. The…
Cameras can be found in various types and configurations. But which camera will fit your application best? In this blog we will discuss some of the more important choices that have to be made when choosing “the best” camera for your measurement and inspection system.
In our previous blog we talked about which decisions you have to make when choosing which camera you need for your application. However for each type of camera, defined by interface, resolution, frame rate, reliability tests etc., there are often several manufacturers to choose from. So how should you determine your final manufacturer choice?
