Basler's eXcite intelligent camera series now includes four new megapixel-resolution CCD models to complement existing eXcite versions having VGA resolution. The new variants are equipped with 1.45- and 2.0-Mpixel CCD sensors and are available in monochrome and color versions. At full resolution, the new cameras can capture images at 17.8 and 14.0 fps, respectively (in contrast to a maximum 180-fps capability for the VGA models).
The eXcite integrates a digital camera and a complete PC in a small industrial grade housing. A 1.0-GHz processor running a Linux operating system is the heart of Basler’s eXcites. Image processing can be done directly on the device, allowing complex, high-speed applications. The standard Linux OS provides full access to the device and allows adaptation to a range of application-specific requirements.
