A 3D smart camera for stand-alone solutions in factory automation
Every day SICK sensor solutions simplify production for thousands of companies around the globe. Our 3D smart camera, the IVC-3D, brings a new dimension to sensor intelligence and to flexible automation solutions.
The real world has three dimensions! Using traditional 2D camera solutions will always be a compromise when height matters to you. IVC-3D is the first smart camera in the world that inspects all three dimensions, giving you unsurpassed inspection results and robustness.
Application examples:
Inspection and volume measurement of bread in bakeries
Misshaped bread will be rejected automatically to increase quality and reduce problems in the packaging station. The volume measurement can be used for on-line adjustments of the process parameters.
Inspection of brake plates in automotive industry
Three features are inspected on the brake plate: the surface, height position of the plug, and the angle of the metallic spring. All are 3D features and are inspected simultaneously.

| Intelligent single board cameras for industrial applications from Vision Components are especially designed for OEM applications. Delivered without a housing, these cameras are suitable even for demanding tasks. Due to their highly compact dimensions (60 x 80 x 35 mm), they can be easily integrated into plants and machines. The new single board cameras VCBoardCam are available as color and black-and-white models. Both feature a 400 MHz processor from Texas Instruments which has a computing power of 3,200 MIPS. The VCBoardCam have a resolution of 1,024 x 768 and 640 x 480 pixels, respectively, recording 16 or 32 frames per second. The Smart Cameras come equipped with 4 MB Flash EPROM and 32 MB SDRAM for program and data storage. An Ethernet interface enables live video display on a PC and serves to integrate the camera into existing automation environments. Additionally, the cameras feature two digital inputs, four outputs and eight TTL I/Os. A high speed trigger input enables jitter-free image recording even at very high reading frequencies. Like all other Smart Cameras from Vision Components, the VCBoardCam are designed for use in rugged industrial environments and withstand vibrations and shocks. |

| The highly compact Smart Cameras VCBase are also available as color cameras. Just like the black-and-white models, they feature high-performance Texas Instruments DSPs with a clock rate of 400 MHz and a computing power of 3,200 MIPS. At 1024 x 768 and 640 x 480 pixels respectively, the VCBase family offer a frame rate of 16 or 32 fps. Both models come equipped with 32 MB DRAM and 4 MB Flash EPROM for program and data storage. With four PLC inputs and four outputs as well as a RS232 and an Ethernet interface, they can be easily integrated into any existing automation environment. Like all Smart Cameras from Vision Components, the VCBase are designed for rugged industrial environments – due to their robust industrial housing, they resist vibration and shocks. |

| Vision components introduces the VCProfessional family, a current developed series of intelligent cameras suited even for highly demanding applications. The compact devices are freely programmable stand-alone image processing systems which can be integrated into almost any industrial facility. As all image recognition and processing functions are provided by the camera, no auxiliary PCs are necessary. The new Smart camera models are based on the tried and tested VC standard series and come equipped with technical enhancements: they feature both an RS232 and an Ethernet interface as well as high-performance Texas Instruments processors (400 MHz, 3,200 MIPS). With 32 MB RAM and 4 MB flash EPROM, the cameras have twice the memory capacity of their predecessor models. Additional storage memory is provided by a 128 MB SD card. Proven features, such as the cameras' VGA monitor output or their four digital inputs and outputs remain unchanged. Thanks to the real time operating system VCRT, the devices are able to multitask. Furthermore, they have a high speed trigger input that enables jitter-free image recording even at very high reading frequencies. Six different VCProfessional Smart Camera models are now on the market. Resistant to vibrations and shocks, all VC cameras are suitable for use in rugged industrial environments. |

| Vision Components presents the VCOptimum Smart Cameras family. Due to its improved specifications, the current series is suitable even for highly demanding applications. Incorporating the latest Texas Instruments DSP generation (1 GHz, 8,000 MIPS), the VCOptimum models are among the fastest intelligent cameras on the market. In spite of their small size, their performance compares favorably with the current PC generation. Depending on the model, the VCOptimum series offers a maximum resolution of 2 megapixels and maximum frame rates of 242 fps (484 fps in binning mode). The Smart Cameras feature an RS232 and an Ethernet interface as well as an external trigger input that also serves as an incremental encoder input. The basic versions come equipped with 64 MB of internal RAM, which can be optionally extended to 128 MB. The cameras are freely programmable stand-alone image processing systems which can be integrated into almost any industrial facility, thereby rendering auxiliary PC stations unnecessary. Just like their predecessor models, the new high-performance Smart Cameras have a direct video output, four digital SPS inputs and four digital outputs. All VC cameras are suitable for use in rugged industrial environments. Seven different VCOptimum Smart Camera models are now on the market. |

IVC-2D - Smart Camera solutions for factory automation
Every day SICK sensor solutions simplify production for thousands of com- panies around the globe. Our industrial vision camera, the IVC-2D, brings
a new level of sensor intelligence to flexible automation solutions.
From now on the IVC-2D camera can not only check geometries, but also simultaneously detect and read figures, letters and bar codes, e.g. sell-by dates for food or batch numbers on pharmaceutical packages.
The camera system thus becomes a complete solution for inspecting packaging and its printing at the same time.
With many inspection tools, powerful configuration software and dedicated support engineers SICK IVP is your partner of choice for vision. Performance and intelligence in a robust industrial package.

| Vision Components' VisiCube camera, which measures only 65 x 45 x 45 mm and weighs 170 g, provides a highly compact image processing solution for industrial environments. The Smart Cameras come complete with measuring lights and an integrated lens. They feature a 400 MHz (3,200 MIPS) processor from Texas Instruments and a 1/4" CCD sensor, which offers a 640 x 480 pixel resolution and a frame rate of 32 fps. The cameras are equipped with 32 MB DRAM and 4 MB Flash EPROM for program and data storage. They are integrated into existing automation environments via an RS422 and an Ethernet interface – the latter also enables live video display on a PC. Standard equipment also includes two digital inputs and four outputs. A robust aluminum and plastic housing provides IP65/67 protection, making VisiCube units suitable for rugged environments. Further accessories, such as external lights, tilted mirrors and protective cases, allow for easy adaptation to specific requirements. Thanks to the Linux-like real time operating system VCRT, which was developed by Vision Components, the intelligent cameras can be freely programmed. With a wider performance range than conventional vision sensors, they carry out sensor-like tasks and execute all image processing routines without an additional PC. They thereby enable automation in applications where conventional, PC-based image processing systems are too costly or too complicated to implement. |
