Abstract

A new 6000 element line scan camera is described in this paper which is capable of very high speed operation. Unlike previous line scan cameras with such high resolution, this camera is capable of data rates up to 30 Mpixel/sec, provides video digitized to 8 bits, is a single unit, and is very compact. The speed and resolution of this camera provides vision system designers new flexibility to inspect with a single camera where multiple cameras were previously required, achieving significant system integration cost and time savings. This paper describes the performance and features of this camera. Results show that despite the large size of the image sensor, performance does not degrade significantly with speed.
