Laetus unveils new SmartSpect camera

Laetus says it has brought to the market the next generation of fully integrated smart cameras for optical quality control with the new SmartSpect. The intelligent camera system combines a camera and high-performance image processing in a single unit.

Suitable for checking-type tasks on packaging lines that can only be covered by a single camera, the camera boasts a compact design, making them easy to install in confined spaces and challenging industrial environments. The camera features CMOS sensors, which generate and process high-resolution images inside a single unit, while the integrated Intel dual-core embedded processor processes the image data obtained, with no need for an additional PC or controller, Laetus explains.

The package contains vision-inspection applications for checking barcodes and both OCV and OCR reading. Two different resolutions, both monochrome, are available at the time of launch, as well as a choice of different lighting versions. All versions feature a C mount lens as standard and a connection for a liquid lens. The systems are operated either via a connected Argus wt system or independently of this via the Navigator touchscreen browser.
