Image processing expert Vision Components introduces the new VCSBC4012 Smart Camera
, thereby extending its VC BoardCam range of intelligent cameras
without a housing suitable for demanding industrial applications.
Available in large quantities, the Smart Cameras provide an optimal
price/performance ratio. The 5 megapixel units are designed especially
for OEM manufacturers.

All components of the new camera are installed on a board measuring 40
x 120 mm, which makes it easy to integrate the unit into a wide range
of applications. The VCSBC4012 features a CMOS sensor with a freely
programmable resolution up to 2,592 x 1,944 pixels. Its key components
is a 400 MHz processor from Texas Instruments with a 3,200 MIPS
computing power. At full resolution, the frame rate is 11.6 fps. VGA
skipping allows for a maximum frame rate of 102 fps. The VCSBC4012
comes with 64 MB DRAM for program and data storage. An Ethernet
interface allows for integration into existing automation
environments. Two digital inputs and four outputs (open collector) are
additionally available. The intelligent camera, which is available as
a color or black-and-white model, is suitable for use in low-light
conditions. An electronic rolling shutter ensures short exposure times.
