It is billed as the first smart camera in its class to incorporate
multiple processing engines. This enables algorithm optimization via
DSP, application management via CPU, and sensor management via FPGA. It
is also the first smart camera to truly embed the application software,
which is easily set up through a standard Web browser, says the vendor.
The BOA features a compact, 44mm cube form factor, and its IP67-rated
housing enables use in harsh, washdown environments. The vendor’s
embedded iNspect software is a graphical point-and-click application
that is designed to make life easy for both first-time and experienced
vision users. “The BOA Vision System sets a new benchmark for single
point inspection cameras in the industry. It offers advanced vision
capabilities that are easy to integrate at an affordable price, while
consuming very little space and power,” says Steve Geraghty, director
of the vendor’s Industrial Products group. The BOA is available now in
a monochrome version, with a color version to be available later this
year.
