Sophisticated imaging capabilities

822 Stemmer Imaging, 78 JAI distributor in several European countries, has announced the new JAI AD-081GE dual CCD camera. It provides independent shutter/gain control for each CCD, enabling the camera to capture details in scenes with a wide variation of light intensities, giving enhanced dynamic range and extremely versatile imaging. This new camera is fully GigE Vision/GeniCam-compliant and features built-in image fusion capabilities for merging the outputs from the two sensors.

Independent control of the shutter and gain for each sensor not only allows the camera to be configured for high dynamic range (HDR) applications but makes it particularly suitable for applications where two extremes of light levels may need to be imaged. Each sensor can be set to give optimum sensitivity for a particular light level.
