The latest machine vision cameras from 518 Allied Vision Technologies (AVT) include the Mako series, an ultra compact machine vision camera with a typical 29 x 29 mm format and GigE vision and USB3 vision. The GigE version will include seven models with resolutions ranging from VGA to 4.2 Megapixels. The USB3 version will be available later this year with five sensors and VGA up to 4 Megapixel resolution. Both variants will feature the latest CMOS sensor technology.

Other new cameras include the high-resolution Prosilica GT models, including the Prosilica GT6600 camera that offers the highest resolution of the AVT portfolio with a 29 Megapixel CCD device from Truesense Imaging, and the flexible Manta family which offers a wide choice of CCD and CMOS sensors and options. With 9.2 megapixel resolution in a compact format, the Manta G-917 closes the gap between conventional machine vision cameras and those with very high resolution that use 35mm full format sensors. The Manta G-917 comes equipped with Sony’s newest 1/1 inch ICX814 EXview HAD CCD II sensor.
