Genie HM/HC Series Overview
Description
The Genie HM/HC camera family form a series of affordable, easy to use digital cameras specifically engineered for
industrial imaging applications requiring high frame rates. Genie cameras combine standard gigabit Ethernet
technology with the DALSA Trigger-to-Image-Reliability framework to dependably capture and transfer images
from the camera to the host PC.
The Genie HM camera series provides monochrome acquisition while the HC camera series, using the same sensor
with a Bayer filter, provides color acquisition.
All Genie cameras are supported by DALSA Sapera™ LT software libraries featuring CamExpert for simplified
camera set-up and configuration. Sapera LT is field proven in thousands of robust industrial applications. Hardware
independent, Sapera LT delivers the same reliable performance regardless of the image acquisition device being
used. This unique feature allows OEM’s to start using the Genie without re-writing applications developed for
DALSA frame grabbers. In addition, Sapera LT includes powerful diagnostics and setup utilities for application
development, custom camera configurations and system deployment.
