Manta series expanded

Allied Vision Technologies has expanded its best-selling Manta camera series. Alongside two new models - the G-145/30fps and G-201/30fps - each member of the family is getting new firmware with additional functions as well as a wide selection of modular concept variations, including a GigE Vision interface with Power over Ethernet support.

518 Allied Vision Technologies has expanded its best-selling Manta camera series. Alongside two new models - the G-145/30fps and G-201/30fps - each member of the family is getting new firmware with additional functions as well as a wide selection of modular concept variations, including a GigE Vision interface with Power over Ethernet support.

The Manta G-145/30fps is based on the already wellknown Manta G-145 with 576 Sony ICX285, but it delivers 30 images per second at full resolution, 1.4 megapixels which is twice as many as its sister model. Meanwhile, the new Manta G-201/30fps is similar; like the Manta G-201 it is equipped with the two-megapixel Sony ICX 274 CCD sensor but instead of 14fps it achieves 30 fps at full resolution.

Additional optional hardware variants for all Mantra family models include four different turned-head housings to ease fitting the camera into systems where depth clearance is tight. Also new is the Power over Ethernet (PoE) interface. This Gigabit Ethernet interface enables the implementation of so-called 'single cable solutions' within the Manta family, since power is delivered via the data cable. Meanwhile, all Manta cameras now have new firmware with many additional functions for even better camera control, camera adjustment, and image processing.

    The use of alcohol interlocks to prevent drink driving and change driver behaviour is gaining ground around the world but needs greater buy-in from authorities as Colin Sowman discovers. The often repeated mantra says that prevention is better than cure - and none more so than in the case of drink-driving. The introduction of the breathalyser provided an objective indication of alcohol consumption instead of having drivers touch their nose or walk in a straight line. Initially breathalysers were used as a r

If it does have any serious flaws, these are going to become apparent quite soon, because the first
