VIGI-Lux 5770 is the Vigilant Choice for Machine Vision, License Plate Recognition and IR Surveillance Applications

November 7, 2006 - Stuttgart, Germany - Vision 2006 - Booth 3.0.004 - PerkinElmer Optoelectronics, a global technology leader in digital imaging, specialty lighting and optical detection technologies, today announced that it will introduce its new VIGI-Lux(TM) 5770 High Intensity IR Illuminator at Vision 2006, November 7-9, 2006 at the Stuttgart Messa. The VIGI-Lux 5770 from PerkinElmer is the newest member of the VIGI-Lux IR Illuminator family and satisfies a range of demanding applications including license plate recognition, infrared surveillance, and industrial machine vision applications.

The VIGI-Lux 5770 provides up to 50 Joules/flash of high intensity illumination and is available in both narrow and wide beam configurations. The Xenon flashlamp in the VIGI-Lux 5770 allows the system to cover the full light spectrum from ultraviolet through the visible to the infrared. A standard IR long-pass filter removes all wavelengths under 780 nm, making the strobe invisible to the naked eye. The modular architecture of the VIGI-Lux 5770 affords system designers more flexibility in configuring their end products. The system is conveniently housed in a rugged weatherproof enclosure to protect against harsh environments.

"The VIGI-Lux 5770 is the newest addition to PerkinElmer's Vision and Illumination Product Family and its combination of high intensity illumination, rugged construction and convenient modular design demonstrates why PerkinElmer has been an innovative leader in the vision and illumination market for over 25 years," said Beth Haskell, Global Product Leader, Vision and Illumination Systems for PerkinElmer Optoelectronics.

The new VIGI-Lux 5770 will be featured at Vision Light Tech's Booth 3.0.004 at Vision 2006.
