November 2014, Singapore (http://www.thegreenbook.com/products/news/industrial-vision-camera-hdr-cmos-cameras/)First Sensor presents the new digital megapixel cameras of the Blue Raven line.The stand-alone HDR CMOS cameras feature a powerful digital signal processor(DSP) and internal memory which enables the processing and evaluation of theimages inside the device through complex software algorithms. Possible methodsinclude lens distortion correction, digital pan–tilt–zoom (ePTZ), privat zones,motion tracking, dual stream and the fusion of the images with other sensorsignals such as radar. Further, it is possible not to forward the imagesthemselves but only the obtained information from their evaluation in order toreduce the amount of transferred data. A digital Ethernet interface allowscustom specific programming of the Blue Raven cameras.
Cameras: Intrinsically Safe | HDR-CMOS cameras with internaldata evaluationis a new digital megapixel camera produced byFirst Sensor as an addition to their Blue Raven line. The Cameras: Intrinsically Safe | IndustrialVision Camera | HDR-CMOS Cameras has a very light sensitive HDR-CMOS sensorand a high dynamic range of more than 120dB. The Industrial VisionCamera | HDR-CMOS Cameras can be used on mobile vehicles like heavytrucks, transport vehicles, agricultural equipment, and mining machines.
With its very lightsensitive HDR-CMOS image sensor and high dynamic range >120 dB the BlueRaven cameras are ideal for high brightness differences and low lightconditions. The cameras are robust against mechanical shocks, vibrations andtemperature changes. Additionally, the housings are protected against ingressof water and dust. All of First Sensor’s OEM cameras are subject to the qualitymanagement standard for the automotive industry ISO/TS 16949.
Important featuresof the new Blue Raven camera line:
- Digital signalprocessor (DSP) and internal memory
- Lens distortioncorrection, ePTZ, privat zones, motion tracking, dual stream, sensor fusion
- Internal dataevaluation
- Robust againstmechanical shocks, vibrations and temperature changes
Typicalapplications of First Sensor’s stand-alone HDR-CMOS cameras include mobilevehicles such as heavy trucks, agricultural equipment, mining machines andpublic transport vehicles as well as stationary surveillance of industrialplants.
