November 23, 2008 - Toshiba Teli America introduced model CCSFU15CC18, a UXGA resolution (1600 x 1200) color camera incorporating FireWire-B (IEEE-1394.b) technology, resulting in extremely-fast image signal output rates of 800 Mbps. This mix of high-speed and high-resolution makes it ideal for OEM solutions in robotic vision, electronics inspection, semiconductors or microscopy.In addition to increasing full-frame color transfer rates up to 15 frames-per-second, the CCSFU15CC18's use of FireWire-B enables it to achieve outstanding imaging results with less signal distortion, increased throughput, and the added versatility afforded by its backwards compatibility with conventional 1394.a.
Although it features a 1/1.8 inch type CCD, the camera measures only 44mm x 29mm x 44mm, allowing its integration into smaller machine vision systems.Other performance features include full frame shutter, even at random trigger shutter operations, to provide vertical resolution without degradation; a tetragonal lattice layout of 4.40µm x 4.40µm CCD pixels to facilitate faster image processing; and built-in color process that provides Raw output, as well as RGB, YUV 4:2:2 and YUV 4:1:1 output modes.
The camera is RoHS compliant.SDK and Viewer software for all FireDragon cameras and other IEEE-1394.b cameras can be downloaded for free.
