VC40180 pages
The VC4018 is an extremely fast intelligent com-pact
camera and one of the fastest intelligent ca-meras all
over with a computational power of 3200 MIPS rivalling a
2.6 GHz Pentium. It has 32 MB DRAM, 4 MB Flash
EPROM for program and data storage. It can acquire full
frame 640 x 480 pixel, at 32 frames per second!
SPECIFICATIONS
VC4018 (Also available as colour version!)
SENSOR
1/2“, 640 (H) x 480 (V) pixels
SHUTTER
high-speed: up to 36.2 µs
in steps of 62.4 µs
low-speed: up to 2 s
adjustable integration time
The own internal operating system ’’VCRT’’ of the
VC4018 is multitasking. This means that multiple
processes can be executed in parallel.

It has a video output onto a PC via 100 Mbit Ethernet interface and also a High-Speed Trigger input with
absolute constant capture delay, which allows absolutely
jitter-free image acquisition even at very high-speed
processes.
And whereas a standard progressive scan camera gets a
trigger, starts exposure and then reads out the pixel data,
the VC4018 has optimized the image acquisition process
so that exposure
and readout are in parallel.
The VC4018 offers thus an extremely inexpensive
entrance into the world of the high performance intelligent
cameras.
All Vision Components Smart Cameras are built for
industrial applications. They are insensitive to shock and
vibration, and have multiple I/O lines for direct control of
external equipment. For more complex control tasks, they
can easily be interfaced to a PLC.
No liability is assumed for possible errors!
