NEW Phantom® v640 Camera for Industrial Applications

4 megapixels at over 1500 frames per second

Phantom® v640 is designed for industrial applications demanding high-resolution and high-speed images.

The v640 features breakthrough sensitivity and its high resolution can be used to full advantage at speeds normally calling for large-pixel, low resolution cameras.

***************************************************************

Based on a camera architecture first introduced with the Phantom® v12.1, the v640 provides a 4 megapixel sensor and greater than 6 gigapixel/second throughput. That means full-resolution frame rates of over 1400 frames-per second (fps), and 1920x1080 HD-resolution frame rates of over 2700 fps.

The v640's high-resolution timing system yields a timing resolution of better than 20 nanoseconds. Frame rate, frame synchronization and exposure accuracy are all improved over previous generations of high-speed cameras. And, an external frame synchronization signal is available via a dedicated BNC for easier cabling and increased signal integrity.

Breakthrough improvements in sensor design yield light sensitivity unsurpassed by any other 4 megapixel digital high-speed camera.Record directly to our Phantom® CineMag™ nonvolatile, hot-swappable memory magazines. They mount on the CineMag™ compatible version of the camera. Continuously record full resolution cines into non-volatile memory at up to 250 fps (490 fps at 1920x1080 HD). That's up to 3.5 minutes into the 256GB CineMag™ or 7 minutes into the 512GB CineMag.
