Rugged CMOS camera KAPPA opto electronics
CMOS, USB 2.0

Kalypso 023-USB is the first CMOS camera series by Kappa. The round camera Kalypso with Aptina sensor provides strong performance at a low price. Its strong points are the special Kappa features like the rugged construction and the high signal quality. The operating temperature is between -20°C and +80°C. The 1/3“ cameras with global shutter come equipped with an USB 2.0 interface and offer 10-bit digitization depth at a resolution of 752 x 480 pixel (WVGA). With linear sensor characteristics the cameras achieve more than 55 dB, in the High Dynamic Range Mode they achieve more than 80 dB. Kalypso is used for industrial and non-industrial image processing applications. Even with dynamic scenes, under difficult light conditions and rough ambient conditions the Kalypso cameras deliver reliable performance and high image quality. An ultra-compact construction (50 mm diameter and 29 mm width) allows them to be used for machine vision in extremely confined spaces, also in customer-specific design.Kappa provides CCD cameras and CMOS cameras with standard and megapixel resolution, analog and digital interfaces. These are, among others, video, RS 422, Fire Wire, IEEE 1394, Camera Link, LVDS, USB, Gigabit Ethernet, HD-SDI, SDI. The CCD cameras and CMOS cameras are available as compact versions, with remote head for endoscopic tasks and as customer-specific versions. As technology supplier Kappa also provides CCD cameras and CMOS cameras as board cameras or with specific customized housing design. Kappa specializes in the area of CCD cameras and CMOS cameras for integration, rugged CCD cameras and CMOS cameras as well as customer-specific solutions.
