Uniforce Sales and Engineering will be providing demonstrations of the new 1730 fps NIR camera, Cheetah, by XenICs and IO Industries’ recording systems the Mobi and Blade at the upcoming OSG Meeting in April. Knowledgeable representatives will be there to answer any questions and to provide technical assistance.

“This is an opportunity to get hands on with the newest technology in high speed image acquisition and mobile recording,” said Ben Castricone, CEO Uniforce Sales and Engineering. “Applications for the mobile units include airborne, vehicle and laboratory.”

Cheetah

CheetahThe CHEETAH is a high speed digital infrared camera and combines a TE-cooled InGaAs detector head with the control and communication electronics. The CHEETAH unit is available with standard wavelength (0.9 to 1.7 µm) InGaAs detector arrays. The CHEETAH digital camera is operated from one single 12 V – 5 A power supply (included in the configuration). The camera head interfaces to a PC via a Gigabit Ethernet or CameraLink connection. Each camera is delivered with a graphical user interface that offers direct access to various camera settings such as exposure time and operating temperature. It allows the user to acquire and display 14-bit data. The software tools include two point uniformity correction and bad pixel replacement.

Blade

BladeThe Blade's 12V DC power input, low power consumption (45W max.), and optional built-in GPS receiver, ideally suit it for video recording in aircraft and vehicles.

Integration into the factory environment is simplified by its small size, just 1U of rack space, and its facility for full remote control by Ethernet.

An embedded system design with no internal hard disk ensures greater reliability and lower maintenance than PC-based DVR systems.

For pure unbridled recording performance, nothing compares. The Blade's DVR engine is powered by three 4Gb fibre channel disk controllers delivering a maximum sustained uncompressed recording data rate of 1.1 GByte per second, direct to hard disk or SSD.

Advanced features include precision time-stamping of video frames in hardware, hardware trigger inputs/outputs with FPGA-controlled timing manipulation, audio recording, and meta-data recording over RS232.

Mobi

MobiAdd touchscreen control to the world’s fastest DVR engine and you have the ultimate in portability and performance, IO Industries DVR Express® Mobile.

Every detail of the Mobile has been designed for ease of use in vehicles and aircraft. A 12V DC power input, low power consumption (55W max.), optional GPS receiver, and optional rackmount kit simplify its deployment. And operating it is as intuitive as consumer-based video recorders.
