Camera Operation
1. General
This manual covers the digital 2-CCD progressive scan multi-spectral camera AD-130GE.
The AD-130GE is a GigE Vision compliant camera, belonging to the JAI C3 Advanced family. The
AD-130GE employs 2 CCDs, one for Bayer color and the other for NIR monochrome utilizing
prism optics so that the AD-130GE can inspect the objects by visible color sensor and Near IR
sensor with the same angle of view.
The AD-130GE provides a frame rate of 31 frames/second at full resolution. Using partial scan,
the camera can achieve faster frame rates up to 145 fps (8 lines height).
The 1/3" CCDs with square pixels offer a superb image quality. The high-speed shutter function
and asynchronous random trigger mode allows the camera to capture high quality images of
fast moving objects.
The camera features a built-in pre-processing function which includes blemish compensation,
shading compensation, Bayer to RGB interpolation, LUT/gamma correction and knee control.
The AD-130GE also complies with the GenICam standard and contains an internal XML file that
is used to describe the functions/features of the camera. For further information about the
GigE Vision Standard, please go to www.machinevisiononline.org and about GenICam, please
go to www.genicam.org.
As an application programming interface, JAI provides an SDK (Software Development Kit). This
SDK includes GigE Vision Filter Driver, JAI Control tool, software documentation and code
examples.
The JAI SDK can be downloaded from www.jai.com.
