Line Scan Camera performs continuous web inspection
Line Scan CameraLegend LS Line Scan camera can be used for applications that require high-resolution and high-speed scanning. Using a DSP processor, the camera acquires an image of a moving object line-by-line at a rate of up to 18,000 lines per second, and can accommodate acquisitions of up to 8,190 x 2,048 pixels. The line scanner builds a discrete image from continuously acquired lines and provides continuous web inspection, generating a continuous stream of scan lines rather than discrete video frames. The camera also unwraps a cylindrical object for label or surface inspection on a flat plane.
