High Speed Camera, sensitive global shutter CMOS sensor, Camera Link

The Bonito is a high speed camera with a sensitive global shutter CMOS sensor. The Bonito CL-400B/C runs 386 fps at 4 Megapixel resolution and has an ultra-fast 2 x 10-tap Camera Link Full+ interface. Considerably higher frame rates can be reached with a smaller ROI (region of interest). The Bonito CL-400B/C 200 fps version runs 193 fps at full resolution and is equipped with a 1 x 10-tap Camera Link Full+ interface. 

• 386 fps at 2320 x 1726 pixels (200 fps version: 193 fps)
• Global shutter CMOS sensor (excellent sensitivity due to microlenses)
• Robust and lightweight aluminum housing
• Very low power consumption, 4 W

Options:
Available with C/F/EF-Mount

Application Note:
Frame grabbers for Bonito cameras

• ROI (Region of Interest)
• Fixed pattern noise (FPN) correction
• Digital Gain (selects 8 of 10 bits for output)
• Offset (brightness)
• Exposure time: 1.5 µs, up to 1 s (recommended), > 1s also possible
• Two readout modes:
  • 386 fps with two 10-tap Camera Link outputs
  • 193 fps with one 10-tap Camera Link output
• Continuous mode (image acquisition with maximum frame rate)
• Image on Demand mode (triggered image acquisition)

The Bonito high speed CMOS camera is the perfect choice for applications which require a fast frame rate and excellent image quality. Its global shutter CMOS sensor is ideally suited for high-resolution motion capture.
Another benefit is the robust, lightweight, and very compact housing. The camera transmits the images to the frame grabber in real-time.

Typical applications:

• Applications with high demands on image quality and very fast frame rates
• Motion capture with high resolution
• 3D recordings of still and moving objects
• Science and research
• Medical imaging
• High speed imaging in general
