1. Introduction
1.1. Overview
IMI Tech’s PEARL Series opens up a new horizon in digital image processing; by providing more features in a very
small form factor while still maintaining excellent cost effectiveness and high quality. The Pearl Series models
are comprised of a wide range of resolutions and are equipped with a FIREWIRE
TM
interface and a trigger to suit the
needs of every application. The Pearl Series offers the highest frame rate in each of its resolutions compared
with other products currently available. The very small form factor design has expanded implementation and
broadened application areas by eliminating the limits that currently exist due to size and weight. A large selection
of cameras is available in the PEARL SERIES which consist of sensors sizes(1/3”, 1/2”, 1/1.8”) and resolution(VGA,
XGA, SXGA, UXGA) both in color and black & white. The PEARL SERIES consist of the following models, which
have either CCD sensors or CMOS sensors.
