Original Press Release:
FireWire-B Progressive Scan Monochrome & Color Camera Series Feature 800 Mbps Transfer Rate
SAN DIEGO, CA, January 8, 2007 - Audio Video Supply, Inc. has introduced its FWD line of progressive scan cameras, the first to utilize FireWire-B (IEEE-1394.b) technology, resulting in transfer rates of 800 Mbps or twice that of FireWire-A or USB 2.0 cameras. The Machine Vision market is expected to use the new technology to leverage speed into increases production. Firewire-A and USB 2.0 is the current standard for many OEM applications involving robotic vision, semiconductor inspection and assembly, microscopy and electronic surveillance. The FireWire-B enables the transfer rate of 800 Mbps. In addition to increasing transfer rates, FireWire-B enables the cameras to achieve imaging results with less signal distortion, increased throughput, and the added versatility afforded by its backwards compatibility with conventional 1394.a.
The FWD Series cameras are available in monochrome and color vision versions, extending the advantages of FireWire-B to almost any machine vision application. Many models deliver full-frame images up to 90 frames-per-second and resolutions ranging from VGA (640 x 480) to UXGA (1600 x 1200). Monochrome output can be set for 8 or 10 bit, while color output at either RGB 24 bit, YUV422 or YUV411. Camera CCD sizes are 1/3-inch, 1/2-inch, 1/1.8-inch or 2/3 inch. Performance features include full frame shutter , even at random trigger shutter operations, to provide vertical resolution without degradation; tetragonal lattice layout of 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. All cameras are RoHS compliant.
SDK and Viewer software for FWD cameras and all other IEEE-1394.b cameras can be downloaded from www.avsupply.com for free.
