In an unofficial annoucement from PixeLINK, a new, smaller and "sexier" line of FireWire B cameras will be announced at the 2008 Vision Expo being held in Stuttgart, Germany in November.  While there is very minimal information released about the new line of cameras, the preliminary information that has been revealed is as follows: The new PL-C series of CCD...

Toshiba-Teli has announced the release of a new FireWire B, smart camera inspection system.  The new inspection system includes a very small embedded computer used in conjunction with fast inspection software.  This inspection system can be trained to inspect labels, characters, cap integrity, defects on bottles or objects and many other machine vision appplications. The anticipated inspection system hardware will...

In the world of smart cameras, Sony's 100 smart camera series is genius. The 1 GHz VIA pentium-class processor is open to a variety of applications, thanks to its compatibility with leading software packages including Cognex® VisionPro™ software. Remember more with 512 MB SDRAM. Think fast with 90 frames per second (VGA resolution). See the world in monochrome or color...
