Prism-based 3-sensor RGB cameras delivering highly accurate color and superior spatial resolution for demanding color machine-vision applications.
Key points:
– Sensor/optics: 3-sensor R–G–B prism design with hard dichroic prism filters for steep spectral cutoffs and pure channel separation (no Bayer interpolation).
– Image quality: True per-pixel RGB raw data, higher color fidelity, better edge definition and finer detail resolution than Bayer cameras.
– Models & resolutions: Ten models — 1.6, 3.2, and 5.1 MP variants (AP-1600T, AP-3200T, AP-5100T).
– Sensors: Built on Sony Pregius / Pregius S sensors (IMX273, IMX265, IMX252, IMX548).
– Performance: Frame rates 12–126 fps depending on model and interface.
– Channel control: Independent analog gain and exposure per R/G/B channel for optimized SNR.
– Features: Pixel binning for improved sensitivity; Xscale sub-pixel rescaling on AP-5100T for tailored pixel size/sensitivity/resolution.
– Color processing: In-camera color-space conversions (RGB→HSI, RGB→CIE XYZ, RGB→sRGB/Adobe RGB).
– Interfaces: GigE Vision, Mini Camera Link, USB3 Vision, CoaXPress.
– Applications: Ideal for pharmaceutical, electronics, printing/packaging, microscopy, medical diagnostics where precise color and fine detail matter.
