Description
The Piranha HS 4x cameras offer incredible performance at a low cost. Because they use
TDI technology, the Piranha HS 4x cameras are highly sensitive—50 times greater
responsivity than standard line scan cameras.
With line rates reaching 52kHz and a resolution of 2048 pixels, DALSA’s latest high
sensitivity camera specifically meets the performance requirements needed in demanding
applications such as postal sorting, document scanning, and low light industrial
inspection.
The simple ASCII communications protocol allows you to configure and program
virtually all camera functions through the asynchronous serial control available through
Camera Link.
To speed setup and system debugging, the camera can output a test pattern and end-of-
line sequence to help track the path of data through an acquisition system.
Applications
The Piranha HS 4x cameras are ideal for space-constrained applications demanding high
performance and low-light or cost-effective lighting. Applications include:
• Postal sorting
• Document scanning
• Web inspection
• Industrial inspection
• Low-light scanning
