    1 Series Overview 1.1 Description Teledyne Lumenera USB3 Vision compliant cameras provide a quick and easy means of capturing high quality images on any USB 3.0 equipped desktop, laptop, or embedded computer. Because they are USB-based, there is no need for a frame grabber. Instead, a single cable provides full command control and data transfer at speeds of up to 380 MB/s (Lt series).
