HIGH-SPEED DIGITAL CAMERA
Featuring an interline transfer CCD with progressive-scan
readout, the MegaPlus ES 310/T is designed for applications
where real-time imaging is needed at greater than standard
30 frame-per-second video rates. Standard readout reaches
125 frames per second, and users can select smaller regions
of interest for faster imaging, with rates in excess of 400
fps possible. Asynchronous frame capture is available, allowing
instantaneous capture of an image before readout of the previous
image is complete. The MegaPlus ES 310/T uses a scientific-grade
648 x 484-pixel sensor with 9 x 9-micron pixels. In multi-drop
mode, 99 such cameras can be controlled through a single computer
platform.
