Description
A digital camera designed to capture images in rapid succession so that they can be viewed as a slow-motion replay or analysed frame by frame. The images can either be transferred to a memory card that would be installed in the unit, uploaded directly to a computer or viewed directly from the camera using a separate monitor. The maximum speed of the camera is 1,970 frames per second. The camera does not record video and a lens needs to be purchased separately. This digital camera is used for high-speed imaging, image quality and pixel resolution. Examples of applications that can use this resolution include those that need high magnification, where movement is travelling across a large space, and those that require fine detail precision such as particle tracking analysis. The primary power for this digital camera is 16-32 VDC via 6 pin Fischer, and has a power draw at maximum load of approximately 75 watts. The size of this digital camera is 12.7 cm length, 14 cm width, 15 cm height, with a weight of 2.5 kg.
