Grasshopper2 camera series

Point Grey has launched the Grasshopper2 GigE Vision digital camera series. The first available models incorporate a Gigabit Ethernet digital interface and are based on mono and colour versions of the Sony ICX274, a 2 megapixel CCD that runs at 30fps; and the ICX625, a 5 megapixel CCD that runs at 15fps. The compact Grasshopper2 measures just 44x29x58mm in size and offers new features such as opto-isolated GPIO for industrial triggering and strobe output, new multi-exposure trigger modes, and improved on-ca
