DALSA'S
BOA: all-in-one solution that is smarter, easier to use and more
flexible than previous generations of smart cameras |
Ideal for quality inspection and factory automation, the new BOA M1280
monochrome smart camera offers superior image quality at a resolution
of 1280 x 960 and operates at up to 24 frames-per-second. The BOAS's high-resolution
sensors provide greater measurement accuracy and are able to distinguish
very small features that, if missed, could render a product defective.
More flexible than previous generations of smart cameras, it is the first
in its class to incorporate multiple processing engines enabling algorithm
optimization via DSP, application management via CPU and sensor management
via FPGA.
BOA M1280 supports passive Power-over-Ethernet for applications that demand
a single cable solution. In this configuration, the camera is controlled
via Ethernet and the I/O is unavailable. Consequently, the smart camera's
simplified cabling configuration greatly improves cost of deployment when
compared to typical camera cabling setups.
It is also the first smart camera that offers truly embedded application
software which is easily set-up through a standard web browser.
The BOA M1280 is housed in a robust IP67 enclosure and can be supplied
with screw-in lens covers to provide the same protection for the lens.
Connectors are M12 and also offer IP67 protection Cables supplied as options
to the BOA also provide the same environmental protection making the BOA
ideal for washdown installations.
Dalsa will soon release the colour version.
