Uniformity
Another important illumination parameter is the uniformity of the illuminated area. The light coming for each position
of the imaged area should have the same spectral response and intensity. There should be neither no shadows nor
specular reflections, in the illuminated area. It is always better to use several, preferably two or four light sources
instead of one, to illuminate the area.
Camera Overview
FX10 camera series is built around the monochrome CMOS image sensor that provides a resolution of 1312 x 1082
pixels at a wide range of spectral sensitivity. It is aimed at standard applications in industrial and laboratory image
processing. FX10 cameras work in a push-broom mode, and collect hyperspectral data through single fore optics.
There are four versions of the FX10 camera:
• FX10, CameraLink, 400-1000 nm
• FX10e, GigE, 400-1000 nm
• FX10c, CameraLink, 400-780 nm
• FX10ce, GigE, 400-780 nm
These specifications apply to all FX10 camera versions.

whenever the camera is not in use.
