Smart Cameras

Sony’s Next-Generation Smart Cameras for Machine
Vision and Surveillance Applications — Now in Color!

Sony is expanding its Smart Camera lineup with the introduction of four new cameras to its XCI Series –
offering users a choice of VGA or SXGA resolution in either monochrome or color.

The XCI-SX100/XP and XCI-SX100 C/XP cameras are equipped with a 1/3-type progressive scan CCD that
achieves outstanding picture quality and high-resolution SXGA images (1280 x 960) at 30 fps. The XCI-V100/XP
and XCI-V100C/XP

(640 x 480) at a frame rate of up to 90 fps.

Compared to previous models, these smart cameras are equipped with enhanced processing power
(x86-compatible 1GHz, VIA Eden ULV), built-in Microsoft
512MB of SDRAM memory. They achieve high-speed processing with low power consumption, and also offer
high-speed network operation up to 1000Base-T. In addition, these unique cameras are equipped with various
interfaces, including: two USB 2.0 ports, Gigabit Ethernet I/F to enable wideband transmission, monitor output,
serial interface (RS-232C), trigger input, and exposure output. They also employ Field-Programmable Gate Array
(FPGA) as an additional processing device, which enables easy customization for system designers via
programmable blocks.

And when applications call for precise color monitoring, the XCI-SX100C/XP and XCI-V100C/XP color cameras
are ideal. Combining high-quality image processing within the camera, direct data transfer via a network,
and the ability to control peripheral devices, these Smart Cameras offer a perfect solution for machine vision
applications.

They are also an excellent choice for high-end security monitoring of parking lots, shopping centers, and train
stations since they are equipped with several key surveillance features, including: support CS mount lenses,
mounted Auto Iris interface, AWB, AGC, and Wide-D images. Sony’s next-generation Smart Cameras are ideal for
traffi c control, security, pharmaceutical, food and beverage inspection, as well as traditional machine vision
applications.
