Mightex’s ultrafast USB 3.0 cameras are designed for applications that require high-speed and/or multiple cameras. These cameras are equipped with a super-speed USB3.0 interface that can deliver a transfer rate of up to 400 Mbytes per second, which is 10 times the USB2.0 speed, 3.5 times GigE speed and 6 times Firewire-800 speed. With a fast and high-definition Aptina 5 Megapixel CMOS image sensor that can offer up to 14fps in full resolution and up to 350fps using ROI mode, Mightex USB3.0 cameras are suited for industrial applications that require a great amount of data to be processed and transferred from the camera to the PC. These ultra-compact cameras have external trigger-in, strobe-out, and a powerful engine that supports multiple camera operations. In addition to all these outstanding features, a user-friendly GUI based application software and an SDK are provided for custom software development.
[Note: Board-level cameras are designed for OEM applications, when a system-level enclosure is usually provided. One should be properly grounded when handling a board-level camera, in order to avoid Electro-Static Discharge (ESD) related damages. ESD related damages (which are considered as mis-handling) are not covered by product warranty. For lab use, it is strongly recommended that one choose an enclosed camera, instead of a board-level one.]
