Vision Research Intros Digital High-Speed Camera for Airborne
Applications
(Wireless News Via Acquire Media NewsEdge)
Vision Research, a manufacturer of high-speed digital imaging systems,
today extended its Phantom Miro family with the launch of Miro
Airborne, a digital high-speed camera engineered to specifically
withstand the extreme environments associated with airborne
applications.
Compact, lightweight, and rugged, Vision Research noted, Miro Airborne
is ideal for a number of airborne applications including stores
separation from manned aircraft or UAVs, miss distance calculations for
missile deployment, or landing gear analysis.
At the heart of Miro Airborne is a specially designed CMOS sensor
featuring a maximum resolution of 800x600. At its maximum resolution,
Miro Airborne can record 1,250 frames per second (fps), and up to
111,000 fps at reduced resolutions. With shutter speeds as low as two
microseconds, users can freeze objects in motion, eliminate blur, and
bring out details necessary for successful motion analysis. Miro
Airborne also features mounting plates with standard 1/4-20 holes on
two sides of the camera, and to further help eliminate blur, it
incorporates lens mounting holes for additional lens support and flange
mount Hi-G and vibration resistant lenses.
Vision Research also incorporated two forms of memory with the Miro
Airborne. The camera includes 2GB of internal volatile memory for the
fast writing of data for high-speed image capture and also features a
CompactFlash card slot. After the camera is triggered, Miro Airborne
immediately writes to its internal memory and then automatically
transfers the images to the removable, non-volatile CompactFlash card
for safe storage of images and movie files.
The company said that Miro Airborne digital high-speed cameras will
ship with a trial version of Image Systems' TEMA Starter for Phantom
motion analysis software. One of the most trusted providers of motion
analysis solutions, Image Systems' TEMA software will provide users
with the ability to conduct in-depth, quantitative analysis of their
high-speed images, allowing them to automatically track three targets
and calculate for velocity and acceleration.
Miro Airborne has an anodized flight test orange finish and is
available now in the United States.
Vision Research designs and manufactures high-speed digital imaging
systems used in domains including defense, automotive, engineering,
scientific and medical research, industrial and commercial, sports and
entertainment, and digital broadcast and cinematography.
