High-speed vision sensor
Staff -- Test & Measurement World, 8/1/2005
Combining fast sensing speed with high resolution, the PresencePLUS P4 Edge 1.3-Mpixel vision sensor performs up to 1200 inspections/min at a cost of under $2000. The P4 Edge uses a 1280x1024-pixel imager to capture minute details of multiple features at ranges from a few inches to several feet, depending on the lens. You can use the compact, self-contained vision sensor for precision inspections, error-proofing, and counting stamped metal parts, as well as for validating the location of objects such as labels or components of an assembly. The P4 Edge offers a built-in Ethernet connection, RS-232 port, or four discrete input/outputs, along with either an in-line or right-angle lens. Price: $1995.
