The credit card-sized GB-Series are high-performance, board-level machine vision cameras with Gigabit Ethernet interface (GigE Vision™).

The GigE interface allows for very fast frame rates and long cable lengths (up to 100 meters).

The GC-Series cameras are ultra compact, high-performance machine vision cameras with Gigabit Ethernet interface (GigE Vision™). The GigE interface allows for very fast frame rates and long cable lengths (up to 100 meters). The GigE cables are easily manufactured in the field from standard CAT5e network cable. Applications for the GC-Series cameras include machine vision, industrial inspection, avionics, traffic monitoring, license plate reading, public security, intelligent transportation systems (ITS), character recognition, robotics and surveillance, and much more.

In addition to the GC range, the GE cameras have faster triggering and increased on-board memory. Many of the gigE vision cameras are available in both housings. The GE range also offers the following models:

CIS are the largest manufacturer of board cameras in Japan, and have now developed a range of high quality cased cameras. They have a large range of compact progressive scan Cameralink and analogue CCD cameras.

HV-D series
The HV-D series are high resolution C-Mount 3CCD colour cameras. They are equipped with a newly developed digital signal processor (DSP), which is contained on a single ultra-LSI (large scale integration) chip utilising Hitachi's most recent processing technology (0.18µm, internal core plus 1.8 volt drive, 3 million gates) to achieve small size, low power consumption and high stability.

KP-M series

• A range of compact and lightweight monochrome cameras.
• Variable multi-speed electronic shutter of eight steps and optional restart reset function is provided to enable a desired picture to be captured at desired timing.
• Uses the latest high grade 2/3" CCD with total of over 470,000 pixels, which enables high accuracy image processing, and features high sensitivity and high resolution. With selectable integration mode, the HD/VD external sync operation, and the non-interlace scan capability, it is most suitable for use with a microscope or image processing equipment

KP-F series
A range of progressive scan full frame shutter monochrome cameras using a 1/3" CCD with sensitivity in the near infrared spectrum. The high performance camera boasts high resolution together with a broad array of functions, including multi-step electronic shutter, external horizontal and vertical synchronisation, field on demand and non-interlace scanning. Suitability for image processing is assured by the square lattice pixels on the CCD. Two models are available, type A with a full frame output at 1/30th second and type B with simultaneous output of separate odd and even horizontal lines in 1/60th second.
