Fastec HiSpec 1 Compact Camera


The HiSpec 1 is a compact, low-light high-speed video camera with GigE Vision interface. The unprecedented light sensitivity of the HiSpec 1 enables high speed recordings at 1.3 megapixels with no or little extra lighting.


Benefits

  • Extremely light sensitive: 2500 ASA monochrome, 2000 ASA color.
  • High speed and resolution: 500 frames per second at 1280x1024pixel
  • Easy to connect: GigE Vision compatible
  • Fits in everywhere: Very compact and light weight

Forget About Bright Lights

Until now, lighting has always been a challenge with high-speed imaging. No more! The unprecedented light sensitivity of the HiSpec 1 enables high speed recordings at 1.3 megapixels under normal lighting conditions.

Adjustable logaritmic compression

Having trouble capturing high dynamic range scenery with bright reflections, dark shadows, badly illuminated details? With the adjustable linear to logaritmic compression of the HiSpec 1, you can record scenes with shiny metal surfaces and dark rubber parts with high-contrast details in both bright and dark areas.

Software-Based Auto-Trigger

Now it’s easy to capture those elusive random events. Simply define a “region of interest” in the field of view and let the software trigger take over. Any change in the pre-set image area will stop the recording and save the event sequence. No special hardware or intrusive wiring is required.

Burst Trigger Mode

With the HiSpec’s unique Burst Trigger Mode, you can capture hundreds of image sequences in the memory without downloading. Multiple events can easily be recorded over an extended period of time. Users can also partition the memory into 16 unique segments for additional flexibility.

Use it Everywhere

The HiSpec’s Gigabit Ethernet interface allows the user to operate multiple cameras from any standard Notebook / PC up to a distance of 100 meters. The HiSpec is designed for easy operation in virtually any industrial or laboratory environment.

GigE vision compatibility

The Fastec HiSpec is certified by the EMVA association as GigE Vision compatible, meaning that it will interface to standard GigE Vision software environments. The HiSpec comes with the HiSpec Director II software as well as a C++ SDK for full integration in user-written software.
