New smart cameras
November 1st 2011 Introducing seven new models,
including colour and high-resolution
options, National Instruments is
expanding its NI Smart Camera family
of products. The new NI 177x Smart
Cameras feature a 1.6 GHz Intel Atom
processor for increased processing
power and an IP67 rating, making
them suitable for industrial inspection
applications that require highperformance
in a rugged form.
Additionally, the cameras have a realtime
operating system to deliver the
reliability and determinism needed on
a production floor.
Using the Intel Atom processor, the
new cameras are said to deliver processing
speeds four times greater than
other NI Smart Cameras. They also
add new sensor options, including
VGA, 1.3MP and 2MP in colour and
monochrome as well as 5MP in
monochrome. More articles from National Instruments UK Limited: |
