Innovations For Basler Vision Technologies Ace Camera Series

Basler Vision Technologies has developed the first four models in the Ace series of Power over Ethernet (PoE) compact area scan cameras. Shown at the VISION show in Stuttgart, Germany, these Basler Ace cameras are currently the smallest Gigabit Ethernet (GigE) cameras of their class. With their smaller size, reduced weight (5.2 ounces for the camera, IFB board and housing), newest technology, and best price for a GigE Vision camera, Basler 's Ace Series cameras rise to a new level.

Utilizing Basler's five years of GigE camera experience, the Ace camera series represents the most current technology in a GigE Vision Camera, and targets the replacement of analog cameras, USB cameras, and IEEE 1394a and b cameras that are based on a standard 29x29-mm footprint. Designed to ensure a seamless integration into applications, the mechanical mounting and optical concept are identical to most analog, USB, and IEEE1394 cameras.

APPLICATIONS

The Ace camera has multiple applications, which include video conferencing, cable TV broadcasting, point-of-view (POV), and medical uses. Utilizing its smaller size, this barrier-breaking camera makes GigE technology now suitable for space-critical applications, and the slow shutter and SPOT AE function are perfect for inspection purposes. Utilizing the versatility and flexibility of this camera, when used with an SD system, it allows easy migration from SD to HD whenever needed. With the incorporation of the Auto ICR for Day/Night function, the production of high-quality images during the day, and clear, black-and-white images at night result. This footprint was, until now, unavailable on cameras with a Gigabit interface and many limitations in the use of GigE Vision technology have now been eliminated.
