Intelligent Camera Series

Basler’s newest player in the vision components arena, the eXcite, is an integration of two complex components, a top quality digital camera and a complete, high-performance PC, in a very small housing. A 64 bit, 1 GHz MIPS processor with communication capabilities based on computer networking technology is the heart of the new camera. In addition to the MIPS core, peripherals such as memory and Ethernet interfaces are included inside the processor chip. The use of a Linux operating system on the processor allows the integrated hardware resources to function at top levels. The eXcite is based on a CMOS sensor with VGA resolution and will be available in both monochrome and colour. The frame rate varies in a range from 60–180 frames per second. With a versatile interface that includes USB 2.0, Gigabit Ethernet and digital I/O connections, the camera is well-suited for a wide range of industrial purposes.
