Increased accuracy and resolution in vision applications with multichannel monochrome image acquisition board, with 8- or 10-bit acquisition at up to 60 frames per second
Engineers and scientists now can achieve increased accuracy and resolution in their vision applications with the NI PXI-1409 multichannel monochrome image acquisition board.
PXI combines the high-speed PCI bus with advanced timing and triggering features to provide asynchronous acquisition and easy integration with motion and data acquisition (DAQ) devices.
The new board delivers accurate image acquisition for a broad range of industries, including optoelectronics, biotech, pharmaceutical, telecommunications, and automotive.
Engineers and scientists now can achieve user-configurable resolution with 8-bit (256 greyscale) or 10-bit (1024 greyscale) acquisition, increasing accuracy from standard and non-standard cameras.
Because the NI PXI-1409 is compatible with faster analogue double-speed progressive scan cameras at speeds up to 60 frames per second, engineers and scientists can perform inspections with increased speed and reliability.
The NI PXI-1409 includes four video inputs to connect multiple cameras and hardware calibration to ensure consistent and repeatable image acquisition.
With the NI PXI-1409 and updated NI-Imaq driver software, engineers and scientists can easily change the type of camera used in their application, providing greater flexibility when building applications.
They can replace a low-cost RS-170 camera with a more sophisticated, higher resolution analogue camera.
The process requires few software changes because NI-Imaq uses one set of function calls for a wide variety of cameras, including analogue line scan cameras and cameras with slow or variable pixel clock ranging from 2 to 40MHz.
