CR4000x2 a full-HD Camera at 800 Frames/Sec

The new high-speed camera CR4000x2 completes the successfull CR-series.

The 4 Megapixel sensor used inside the CR4000x2 provides HD recording with extraordinary image resolution and color fidelity. At full-HD resolution of 1920x1080 pixel a frame rate of up to 800 fps is possible. At full sensor resolution of 2304x1720 pixel the frame rate is still 500 fps.

 Sequence recording can either be triggered by using an intelligent image processing algorithm or by a converntionel electrical trigger signal. Pre- and post-trigger features make sure not to miss an event independen when its occurance can be detected. Together with the TimeBench software a powerfull tool for the analysis and storage of  high-speed sequences is available.

The CR4000x2 can be provided with different memory sizes (2, 4 und 8 GB) as monochrome or color version. The standard Nikon F-mount can be replaced by a C-mount.

CR3000x2

The CR3000x2 high-speed camera features a very flexible and fast image sensor. The maximum resolution of 1696 x 1710 pixel allow recordings with 540 fps. With resolution reduction in X and Y direction this system allows a significant increase in speed. With 500 x 500 Pixel it reachs 5000 fps. This allows a maximum in flexibility for many different applications.

    * Measurement applications

    * Process analysis in machine building and production

    * Material testing

    * Broadcasting

The high quality machining as well as the rugged aluminum housing allows to use the camera in rough environments. The control of the camera is done via the TimeBench user software, which is easy-to-use. This allows untrained users to take sequences within a very short time.

Very high light sensitive sensor

Resolution of 1696 x 1710 Pixel (blow-up x2 with UltraFormat)

A speed of 540 fps (up to 100000 fps with reduced resolution)

Extended trigger possibilities (intern, extern, automatic image trigger)

Very large camera memory for long recording times

Direct export of sequences into BMP, TIFF, AVI or MPEG

Camera control with TimeBench user software for windows

TimeBench software

The CR series high-speed cameras are delivered with the TimeBench user software. This software allows to setup all camera parameters, show images in realtime and to capture high-speed sequences. The software offers a user friendly and intuitive camera control. This allows untrained users to use the system within a very short time. TimeBench can be foreseen for single camera applications as well as for large installations using several synchronous operating cameras.

The key features of TimeBench are:

    * Image trigger for automatic recording
    * Logo and text implementation
    * Free adjustable Pre- and Posttrigger
    * Export of AVI video files
    * Distance, velocity and frequency measurements
    * Navigation slidebar
    * Realtime display
    * Synchronous multi-camera operation

Fastec HiSpec 1
Low-Light High-Speed Camera

Capture superb detail without banks of lights sometimes needed by other high-speed cameras. Researchers and line operators can record rapid processes at up to 506 fps at 1280 x 1024 full resolution and up to 112,000 fps at reduced resolution. And the unique software-based ImageBLITZ® Auto Trigger makes it easy to capture those random events. Any change in the "region of interest" will stop the recording and save the event sequence. And the Burst Trigger Mode allows users to capture multiple image recordings in the memory without downloading. Equipped with a ruggedized industrial Ethernet plug with fastening screws, the HiSpec 1 is designed for easy operation in virtually any industrial or laboratory environment.


Fastec HiSpec 2
Expanded Memory and Hi-G Configuration

The HiSpec 2 features a built-in battery, expandable memory from a standard 4GB up to 8GB and can be configured to withstand 100 Hi-G accelerations for 20 ms and vibration to 10g's. Its built-in battery ensures fail-safe operation in the event of a power loss and allows untethered operation for up to an hour. There is also an image retention mode that stores images up to 24 hours. The choice of Hi-G format, IRIG B timing and increased memory combined with its small size make the HiSpec 2 ideal for on-board automotive impact testing, military ordinance testing and other harsh environments. With its ISO rating of 2500 monochrome, the HiSpec 2 records images in superb detail up to 506 fps at 1280 x 1024 pixel resolution and up to 112,000 fps at reduced resolutions.


Fastec HiSpec 3
High-Speed Digital Video Camera

Up to 1000 frames per second at 1280 x 1024 helps capture outstanding image quality and small size assures applications in tight or restricted areas.  The built-in battery operates in three modes: fail safe operation in case of power loss, "untethered" operation for up to 1 hour and image retention mode for up to 24 hours.  The camera's Gigabit Ethernet interface allows operation of multiple cameras from any standard Notebook / PC up to a distance of 100 meters.  Designed for easy operation in virtually any industrial or laboratory environment.

Fastec HiSpec 4
3 Megapixel High Resolution Digital Camera

Outstanding image quality and up to 523 full frames per second at 1696 x 1710 pixel resolution. The HiSpec 4 is GiGE compatible for easy remote camera control and allows users to operate multiple cameras from any standard Notebook / PC over a distance of 100 meters. The HiSpec 4is a perfect fit for a wide variety of high-speed motion applications with the capacity to capture megapixel images at more than 1,400 fps. At reduced resolutions, images can be captured at up to 298,000 fps. The ImageBLITZ® Auto Trigger makes it easy to catch random events. In the field of view, users specify a "region of interest" and the software takes over. Any change in the pre-set area will stop the recording and save the images in memory. These easy-to-use features make the HiSpec 4 a valuable tool in any lab, production line or manufacturing environment. Hi-"G" and IRIG timing are available as options.


Fastec HiSpec 5    
High Resolution and High Speed

The HiSpec 5 provides excellent high detail images at full resolution of 1696 x 1710 pixels and can capture megapixel images at more than 1,400 fps. The camera's standard memory is 4GB and can be expanded up to 8GB. The built-in battery operates in three modes; fail-safe mode to save images in the event of a power loss, untethered operation for up to an hour and an image retention mode of up to 24 hours. The HiSpec's Gigabit Ethernet interface allows users to operate multiple cameras from any standard Notebook / PC up to a distance of 100 meters and multiple cameras can be synchronized to a master camera or to an external source, such as IRIG-B timing. Additional features include ImageBLITZ® software for automatic event triggering, Burst Trigger mode for recording images over an extended period of time and the Multi-Sequence Record mode to record sequences in 2, 4, 8 or 16 individual memory partitions.
