SONY XCI-SX100 B/W 1/3-type PS CCD Scorpion Basic Smart Camera

These cameras are the second generation of intelligent cameras which are capable of image scanning, image processing and peripheral device controlling. The cameras are equipped with enhanced sensor processor and progressive functions and performances. The specifications are provided so that the cameras can serve not only for machine vision processing but also for security management purposes. This model is in monochrome.

This second generation series offers a more powerful 1GHz processor with MMX and SSE support. Designed to run an enhanced Windows XP embedded operating system, the units are ideal for software-based machine vision, security and traffic control applications. An Open FPGA makes a high-level of custom image processing possible. The image output is selectable between grabbed or pre-processed image. The XCI series employ high-resolution, progressive scan interlines transfer monochrome CCD sensors from Sony Semiconductor.
