GigE Vision compliant Genie C1410 and Genie M1410 cameras from Adept Electronic Solutions
Genie GigE Vision-compliant camera
Dalsa, represented by Adept Electronic Solutions in Australia, have released two new models of the Genie GigE Vision-compliant camera family, Genie C1410 and Genie M1410 cameras.
The Genie C1410 and Genie M1410 cameras are designed for industrial imaging applications.
The Genie C1410 and Genie M1410 cameras feature a 2/3 inch CCD sensor from SONY (ICX285) and are available in colour (C1410) and monochrome (M1410) versions running at 22 frames per second (FPS).
Additional features include, global electronic shutter with exposure control, on-board flat-field correction, and on-board colour conversion (used by the colour model) to produce crisp and clear images.
The Genie C1410 and Genie M1410 act as a single machine vision component, integrating both advanced camera and board image acquisition technologies in one small package. They feature a RJ45 ruggedized screw mount cable connector ideal for robotics applications.
High quality image capture for ITS
One of the primary application areas of the Genie C1410 and Genie M1410 cameras is within Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS), to automate traffic management, traffic enforcement and tolling. Machine vision systems support ITS by automating the monitoring and enforcement of traffic laws at red lights, toll booths and for speeding. ITS systems can also be used to automatically locate, identify, and physically measure a vehicle, and can use optical character recognition (OCR) to read its license plate. This can aid in finding stolen cars, and assist in finding other criminal suspects.
GigE Vision
Like all Genie cameras, the C1410 and M1410 are based on the AIA (Automated Imaging Association) GigE Vision Standard to directly link the camera to a PC. They inherit the advantage of Gigabit Ethernet technology, transmitting data over standard CAT-5e and CAT-6 cables to distances of up to 100m allowing for a longer distance between the camera and inspection system.
Software Advantage
The Genie C1410 and M1410 cameras are supported by DALSA's Sapera Essential software and its Genie Framework package for fast and simple camera set-up, from initial set-up to grabbing images in minutes.
Moreover, the Genie Framework employs DALSA's advanced Trigger-to-Image Reliability engineering, accelerating application development and deployment time by providing developers with a 360º view of the entire acquisition process.
