WATERLOO, Ontario - February 13, 2014 - Teledyne DALSA, a Teledyne Technologies company and global leader in machine vision technology, has expanded its Genie™ TS series with the addition of a new 5M camera that can reach speeds up to 51 frames per second (fps) in fast mode. This new Genie combines the industry's latest image sensor technology with a newly optimized camera platform to deliver the widest, most powerful feature set ever in a GigE Vision camera.

Data reduction technique with multiple ROIs

Unique to the Genie TS camera family is a feature that allows the capture of multiple Regions of Interest (ROI), significantly reducing the amount of data transferred and simultaneously allowing systems to focus on events that are critical to the inspection. This form of data reduction decreases the amount of information transferred, saving on bandwidth and minimizing data transfer along the GigE link.

"The Genie TS M2560 delivers an amazing image due to in-sensor calibration which allows for on-chip processing and photo correction at the sensor level," stated Manny Romero, Genie Product Manager at Teledyne DALSA. "It is the fastest 5M GigE camera available today, and a cost-efficient solution for challenging inspection applications."

The Genie TS is engineered to meet the ever increasing speed and image clarity requirements of machine vision. All features are easily accessible with Teledyne DALSA's advanced Sapera Essential or other GigE Vision-compliant software, and like all Genie cameras, this latest model is GigE Vision-compliant.

The Genie TS M2560 monochrome camera is suitable for a wide range of inspection applications including intelligent traffic systems (ITS), entertainment, medical, food and beverage inspection, and electronics and printed circuit board (PCB) inspection, and many others. A color version of the camera will be available later this year. For more information on product specifications, visit the Genie TS feature page or view the Genie TS video.
