Image sensors

Additions to camera family

Two models have been added to the Grasshopper IEEE-1394b (FireWire) 800-Mbit/s digital cameras. The new models are based on the addition of monochrome and color Kodak KAI-0340 640 × 480 1/3-in. CCDs to the line of Sony progressive-scan CCD image sensors available in the Grasshopper. Offering 200-frame/s, full-resolution VGA readout, low noise, high quantum efficiency, and sensitive 7.4-µm square pixels, the new models are for imaging applications in machine vision.
