Combining high-quality image processing within the camera, direct data transfer via a network, and the ability to control peripheral devices, Sony's line of XC Smart Cameras combines a powerful CCD Camera with a PC in order to create a single module that is simple to set up and easy to integrate. Equipped with enhanced processing power (x86-compatible 1GHz, VIA Eden ULV), built-in Microsoft® Windows® XPe operating system, and 512MB of SDRAM memory, these industrial smart cameras are able to achieve high-speed processing with low power consumption while offering users high-speed network operation up to 1000Base-T. Available with VGA or SXGA resolution in either monochrome (black and white) or color, these high performance Sony cameras are the perfect solution for demanding applications where speed and performance are key (machine vision, high-end security and surveillance monitoring of parking lots, shopping centers, intelligent traffic, etc.).
