  • Compact and rugged solution for use in harsh environments
  • Direct streaming of 1.3 megapixel images at over 500 frames per second
  • Circular buffering with pre and post triggering for event capture
  • External triggering and synchronization
  • Fully integrated with MotionPro X imaging suite

The MotionScope M-series comprises two configurations of area scan cameras that are designed for use in industrial and research environments. The M-3 features a 1.3 megapixel sensor delivering over 500 fps via a standard Camera Link® interface, whereas the M-5 provides a very high resolution image with 4 million pixels and sustained rates over 150 fps. The camera electronics are packaged in a very compact and rugged housing capable of withstanding high g-forces and vibration.

Image capture to a computer system is done via a full camera link frame grabber. To ensure the best possible performance and ease of use, the M-series have been seamlessly integrated to operate with the MotionPro X software suite and the CORECO X64 Camera Link PCI-E board solution. The MotionPro X suite and SDK integrates the M-series in a single software platform with IDT X-series, and Redlake MotionXtra camera systems.

The camera benefits from such features such as pre and post triggering for event capture, circular buffering, external synchronization, and flexible choice of ROI. When very long record times are required this compact camera system is configured with a dedicated disk array system.

This flexible and compact camera system is well suited for a variety of vision inspection applications as well as for R&D laboratory usage.
