Sony XCD-MV6 - Miniature 1394.B Monochrome Digital Camera

Sony continues to expand its popular XCD 1394.b camera series with the latest introduction of its ultracompact and lightweight, monochrome XCD-MV6. This new progressive scan camera incorporates a 1/3-type wide VGA global shutter CMOS sensor and is one of the smallest 1394.b cameras available on the market. The XCD-MV6 cameras measures 29 x 29 x 19 mm (1 3/16 x 1 3/16 x 3/4 inches) and weighs only 37 grams. Combining high-quality images with a miniaturized body, the XCD-MV6 is ideally suited for space-restricted machine vision and robotic applications.

Key Features:

1/3-type CMOS Sensor

VGA Resolution at 60 fps

752 x 480 pixels

500 TV Lines

Binning and Partial Scan Functions

Ultra-compact & lightweight body – 29 x 29 x 19mm/37g

IEEE-1394.b Digital Interface

Beta Type IEEE 1394 Connector & 8 pin Hirose Connector

Various image correction functions – Defect pixel correction, fix pattern noise correction and shading correction

Variety of Trigger Modes – H/W and S/W trigger, Edge/Width, Overlap, Trigger/Strobe Delay, Polarity

IIDC Ver. 1.32 Compliant and IEEE-1394b S1600 Compliant - High data transfer rate (up to 1600 Mbps)

Broadcast Delivery Function – Enables the sending of commands (e.g. software trigger and adjusting camera settings) when used in a multiple camera system.

Temporary Image storage function - Allows for delayed transmission (Max. 100 frames)

High shock and vibration resistance
