Smart camera Vision Components
8000MIPS, up to 242 fps, 1GHz

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.
