JVC’s KY-F70U: the flexible
and adaptable digital solution
to industrial photographic
requirements
Whether used on a scope or with a lens
attached, the KY-F70U delivers still images
with a level of resolution and a quality
of color which greatly surpass
conventional 3-CCD video technology.
The KY-F70U Digital Imaging System
interfaces directly to a PC via
SCSI-2 and so can capture SXGA
resolution images directly without
an image capture board, whilst still
offering full-motion live color preview
in real-time. Furthermore, interfaced
with a PC capture board, it can
deliver SXGA resolution into an
even wider range of applications.
The SCSI interface can be
switched simply from Slave to
Master for connection directly to
the SCSI port of a printer, for
example, thus directly providing high res SXGA
images without the intervention of a PC.
KEY FEATURES
The KY-F70U is an ultra-compact, multi-
purpose 1,360 x 1,024 pixel resolution
imaging system that interfaces readily with
C-mount lenses, microscopes, and other
imaging apparatus. It features the
convenience of internal frame memory.
This means that digital image output can
be either direct or from the frame memory
into PC, printer or storage device.
