EURESYS
Eight Cameras, One Slot, Maximum Performance
 The camera data transfer rate of the Coaxlink Octo is 5 GByte/s. It comes with a PCIe Gen 3 x8 bus offering a peak delivery bandwidth of 7.8 GByte/s. The effective delivery bandwidth is 6.7 GByte/s. It is also compatible with the Memento Event Logging Tool.The main target for the new Coaxlink Octo is multi-camera applications, with support for up to eight cameras on a single frame grabber/single slot. Successful Coaxlink applications include 3D AOI, FPD inspection, printing inspection and in-vehicle video transfer. Read more ›
EURESYS – Let’s Double the Bandwidth!
 Euresys is pleased to officially announce the addition of the Coaxlink Quad CXP-12, a 4-connection CXP-12 frame grabber, to its existing Coaxlink series.
CXP-12 is the top speed of the latest version of CoaXPress 2.0. It operates at exactly 12.5 GB/sec! So it is twice the existing speed of the CXP Standard. Practically, we’ll replace 2 Camera Link Full cables by 1 single CXP cable. Over this CXP cable you can transmit more than what could have been transmitted in Camera link Full configurations.

Emergent Vision Launches New 25GigE High-Speed Area Scan and Line Scan Cameras
 Both EVT’s BOLD and ACCEL 25GigE devices provide extreme high-speed interfacing with 3.125 Mbytes/s, to maximize the throughput in real-time applications. Until now, this speed was only attainable with 4-channel CoaXPress. The new interface requires only a single fiber cable compared to the Quad CoaXPress interface that required four cables. The use of SFP28 fiber cables plus step-up transceivers provide cable lengths up to ten kilometres. Handling and integration are becoming much easier and cost effective; the 25GigE interface provides superior capability with a great combination of speed and distance. Read more ›
JAI adds new 12.4-megapixel camera to Spark Series
 JAI has introduced the SP-12401-PGE, a new 12.4 megapixel camera in its Spark Series of high resolution area scan cameras. Two models are offered – a monochrome model (SP-12401M-PGE) and a color model (SP-12401C-PGE). Both models are built around the Sony Pregius IMX304 CMOS imager, which features 3.45-micron pixels and a dark noise rating of less than 2.5 electrons for excellent image quality even under low light conditions.

JAI introduces high-speed 4K prism color line scan camera
 JAI has introduced a new 3-CMOS prism color line scan camera in its Sweep+ Series camera family. The new SW-4000T-MCL features three custom CMOS line sensors with 4K (4096 pixels) resolution, mounted on a high-grade optical prism assembly that precisely splits the incoming light into red, green, and blue wavebands.
The new camera provides 24-bit non-interpolated RGB output at up to 67.7 kHz (67,700 lines per second), which is more than four times faster than any previous 4K prism color line scan camera, making it one of the fastest 4K color line scan cameras of any type – trilinear or prism-based..
