Basler has started series production of Aviator area scan camera models with a GigE interface. These cameras combine superior image quality, speed, and leading edge Basler GigE technology in an ideal way.
The cost-effective camera models feature 1, 2 (4:3 and HDTV), and 4 Megapixel resolutions in mono or colour. The GigE interface offers reliable data transport at over 100fps at 1 Megapixel resolution (100MB/s) over distances of up to 100 metres.
As a result of Basler's extensive Kodak sensor experience, the Aviator series offers great image quality, even at high image capture rates. Due to the advanced four-tap readout technology, the new generation of Kodak sensors used in the cameras is up to four times faster than comparable CCD sensors, according to Basler. And with Basler's unique tap balancing capabilities, the sensors yield homogenous imaging results.
Equipped with a compact 62 x 62 x 57mm housing and features such as progressive readout and global shutter technology, Aviator GigE cameras are well suited for a large array of applications in different industries, including factory automation/robotics and medical imaging as well as photovoltaics and the ITS market.
The new Aviator GigE camera models complement Basler's already well-established Aviator models that feature a Camera Link interface.
