SYNCLightCam
The
SYNCLightCam
is an accessory of the Canid Gait system and perfectly adapted to be
used in combination with the pressure distribution measurement. All adjustments of the cam-
era are carried out via hardware setup integrated to the Animal Analysis Suite Software. The
camera is connected to the PC by a USB cable of type A-B included within the shipment.
The
SYNCLightCam
is equipped with ¼ inch tripod threads and can be adapted to zebris
tripods as wells as commercially available camera tripods.
WARNING
The Sync-LEDs are flashing when the camera is disconnected from
the USB port. Therefore it is strongly advised not to look directly into
the camera when it is disconnected in order to avoid dazzling.
Furthermore contains the SYNCLightCam as an integral solution, the LED video illumination.
In order to produce well lighted and tack sharp video captures it is essential to maintain
perfect lighting conditions at the patient’s side. Only with adequate lighting conditions
video cameras can work with shutter times short enough to freeze fast movements and
capture sharp images.
This solution is perfectly matched on the interaction with the Canid Gait system and can be
regulated infinitely in its brightness.
The integrated synchronization unit automatically switches the lights on at the start of a
measurement and turns them off again after stopping it.
NOTE
In order to ensure failure-free operation of the SYNCLights it is man-
datory to keep the black heat sinks at their back side uncovered and
well air circulated at all times.
