(Basler: Ahrensburg, Germany) -- Digital industrial camera specialist Basler will soon be starting series production of its ace GigE camera models with powerful CMV2000 and CMV4000 complementary metal-oxide semiconductor (CMOS) sensors by CMOSIS, Antwerp, Belgium-based developer, manufacturer, and supplier of image sensors. Shortly after, the two monochrome models will also be available as near infrared (NIR) variants that exceed even high-quality charge-coupled device (CCD) cameras in matters of image quality and sensitivity.

These ace GigE cameras are available with 2 megapixel (MP) resolution and 50 frames per second (acA2000-50) and with 4 MP resolution and 25 frames per second (acA2040-25), each in monochrome and color. As with the CMOSIS Camera Link-based models, these cameras exhibit low noise and a very high sensitivity, resulting in excellent image quality. They are thus an ideal match for a broad variety of applications, including factory automation, semiconductor and electronics production, traffic applications, the solar industry, and the medical sector.
