The nano Series Smart Cameras have been designed for high resolution image processing with a
very small form factor. The VC nano Series Smart Cameras are the ideal compromise between high
performance and low system costs, and its very compact form factor of only 80 x 45 x 20 mm and
170g (incl. mounting block) makes it one of the smallest Smart Cameras on the market.
Employing CMOS sensors, the image resolution can be changed to the ROI required.
Like with all VC Smart Cameras with Texas Instruments DSP, the operating system VCRT allows
multi-tasking. This means for instance that user interface commands can execute in parallel without
stopping the inspection process. It is also possible to transfer live images via TCP/IP using a
background task.
Interfaces include a video output onto a PC via 100MBit Ethernet interface, a high speed trigger input
and output, 12-24 V digital inputs and outputs.
The extremely low power consumption of only 1.5W makes this camera ideally suitable for use in
mobile devices.
