The PL-B761F is a high performance, Wide VGA monochrome camera designed specifically for machine vision applications. Fully IIDC 1.31 compliant, the PL-B761F uses a standard FireWire interface for plug-and-play operation with the host computer. Extended features, such as trigger and general purpose outputs add a level of functionality to the PL-B761F, providing excellent performance for the price. Factory calibrated Digital Pixel Correction and on-board Flat Field Correction (FFC) provides image quality similar to high-end CCD cameras. Typical applications for this camera are PCB and electronic component inspection, food and beverage inspection, parts inspection, container inspection and quality control.

The PL-B761F has a rich set of features and capabilities all controllable through software. An external trigger allows for synchronization in demanding machine vision applications. The global shutter provides high speed shuttering for smear free images of moving objects. In video mode, the camera can deliver up to 60 fps at 752 x 480 and up to 4400 fps at 752 x 8, all with user-definable region of interest (ROI). Full field-of-view images can be decimated for high speed transmission. The camera has a user-selectable 8 or 10-bit output. The CMOS sensor architecture provides excellent anti-blooming capability. With the Software Developer’s Kit (SDK), PixeLINK supplies an extensive Application Programming Interface (API) and camera control Graphical User Interface (GUI) for fast and easy application development. This functionality includes additional trigger modes, general purpose outputs that can be used as communication lines for strobe signals for lighting and motion controllers. Included is an on-board user-programmable lookup table (LUT) applied in real time and on-board non-volatile memory for camera configuration. Multi-slope dynamic range controls, enables balanced exposure in images with large scene dynamic range (low light areas to direct sunlight). This "logarithmic shutter" capability allows the camera to image scenes with 100+dB dynamic range making the camera well suited for traffic monitoring and welding inspection applications. Other typical applications for this camera are PCB and electronics inspection, food and beverage inspection, parts inspection, container inspection and quality control.
