Compact hyperspectral cameras with USB3 and PCIe interfaces - xiSpec

XIMEA and imec are proud to present the newly upgraded camera versions from the xiSpec family xiSpec is an ultra-compact Industrial hyperspectral imaging (HSI) camera family with outstanding facts and features. - Cameras with 10 to 150 spectral bands - 170 fps with USB3 interface, 340 fps with PCIe - Snapshot and line scan versions - Smallest and lightest hyperspectral cameras available - Low power consumption - Rugged, no moving parts - Flexible and programmable GPIO options The camera housing and the bandpass filters are optimized to improve the spectral performance of the cameras including guaranteed spectral data quality. Each xiSpec2 camera is individually calibrated. The camera specific calibration file and spectral test report is part of the scope of delivery. These snapshot mosaic HSI cameras have the unique capability of more than real time video-rate spectral data acquisition. Each image can be interpreted as a hyperspectral imaging cube immediately. The standard xiSpec2 cameras come with a micro-B USB3 interface. For use in compact integration projects, models with USB3 flat-ribbon connection or PCIe (in a later phase) will also be available. The PCIe interface enables bandwidths of 10 Gbit/s with low power consumption and allows access to the maximum possible framerates from the installed sensors. The dimensions of the cameras of only 26.4 x 26.4 x 32 mm and a flyweight of only 32g ideally support mobile applications.
