The Stingray F-080B/C is equipped with a very sensitive SONY CCD sensor. At full resolution,
this 1394b camera runs at 31 fps. Higher frame rates can be reached by a smaller AOI,
binning (b/w) or sub-sampling.
Stingray cameras include numerous real-time image pre-processing functions. All below
mentioned functions are performed by the FPGA inside the camera – with no additional CPU
load and thus an inexpensive host computer.
●
AOI (true partial scan), separate AOI for auto features
●
Programmable LUT, white balance, hue, saturation
●
Debayering
●

●
Sub-sampling, 2x – 8x binning (b/w)
●
Low noise binning mode
●
Defect pixel correction
●
Sequence mode (changes the camera settings on the fly)
SIS (secure image signature, time stamp for trigger, frame count etc.)
●
Storable user settings
The Technical Manual of the Stingray contains detailed descriptions of all functions.
Applications
The Stingray F-080 cameras includes extensive image pre-processing features. This camera
is applicable for e.g.:
●
Industrial inspection and automation
●
Logistics
●
Science and research
●
Healthcare and medical (white housing available)
●
Multimedia, entertainment and sports
●
ITS (Intelligent traffic solutions)
Additionally, it is ideally suited for:
●
Demanding OEM camera applications (board level versions with separate sensor board
available on request)
●
Daisy chaining (two copper connectors)
●
Long cables - 400 meters and more without additional repeaters (Stingray F-080B/C fiber)
Application Case Studies:
●
Drop by Drop Inspection
Industrial Inspection: JetXpert is a sophisticated drop-in-flight analysis system used by
major manufacturersfor of inkjet printers, print heads, and ink.
