Point Grey Grasshopper2 camera

The new 1.4 megapixel IEEE 1394b high-performance Grasshopper2 camera from Point Grey uses the exceptionally sensitive Sony ICX285 2/3in EXview HAD CCD and a 14-bit analogue-to-digital converter to generate high-quality 1.4 megapixel images at 30 FPS - double the rate of the previous Grasshopper. Measuring just 44x29x58mm in size, the device offers new features such as opto-isolated GPIO for industrial triggering and strobe output, and optimised performance imaging modes.

The new 1.4 megapixel IEEE 1394b high-performance Grasshopper2 camera from 541 Point Grey uses the exceptionally sensitive 576 Sony ICX285 2/3in EXview HAD CCD and a 14-bit analogue-to-digital converter to generate high-quality 1.4 megapixel images at 30 FPS - double the rate of the previous Grasshopper. Measuring just 44x29x58mm in size, the device offers new features such as opto-isolated GPIO for industrial triggering and strobe output, and optimised performance imaging modes.

Every Grasshopper2 GS2-FW camera is equipped with a 32Mb frame buffer, 512Kb non-volatile flash memory, and onboard temperature and power sensors to monitor camera status. Mechanical features include an industry-standard C-mount lens holder, removable optical window (monochrome models) or IR cut filter (colour models) and IEEE 1394b connector with screw locks.

    The Lt365R USB 3.0 CCD camera from Lumenera runs at 53fps at full resolution or 66fps at an HDTV resolution of 1,920 x 1,088. It takes advantage of Lumenera’s memory buffer technology which ensures that frames are not lost while running the camera at the sensor’s maximum output. Lumenera states that the Lt365R runs at twice the speed of other USB 3.0 cameras on this image sensor.
