Dalsa Nano XL
Area Scan Camera
High performance, low cost, extremely compact GigE Vision with Very High Resolution

Smaller, faster, stronger, cheaper.
Better in every way that matters.
Introducing Genie Nano, a CMOS area scan camera that redefines low cost performance. Genie Nano starts with industry leading CMOS sensors and adds proprietary camera technology for breakthrough speed, a robust build quality for wide operating temperature, and an unmatched feature set–all at an incredible price. Available in GigE Vision or Camera Link interface.
Latest generation CMOS technology.

Genie Nano is designed to use a range of leading CMOS image sensors, including models from Sony’s Pregius and ON Semiconductor’s Python lines. With resolutions from VGA to 25 megapixels, the Nano delivers high speed, low noise, and global shutters.
Break through the GigE limit.
Teledyne DALSA’s proprietary TurboDrive™ technology allows Genie Nano to deliver its full image quality at faster frame rates—often 150% or higher—with no changes to your GigE network.

Programmability
- Higher frame rates achievable in partial scan mode
- Global electronic shutter with exposure Control
- Multi-Exposure Feature
- Multi-ROI Feature
Applications
- Electronics manufacturing inspection
- Industrial metrology
- Intelligent traffic systems
- UAV / Aerial Imaging

TurboDrive

Break the GigE Limit
TurboDrive is a mode of operation used to push past the gigabit Ethernet speed ceiling, allowing a GigE Vision cameras to send pixel information at a rate in excess of 125 MB/s and speeding up line and frame rates beyond the nominal link capacity.
How much more speed does TurboDrive deliver? The degree of improvement is dependent on the image itself, but is often double the standard throughput.
Image Quality
TurboDrive does not affect your images—the images transmitted to system memory are exactly the same as the images read from the camera sensor, bit for bit. There is no loss of image data and no compromise.
Requirements
TurboDrive does not require any hardware or software changes to your network or application. However it is only available on select Teledyne DALSA cameras and requires Teledyne DALSA’s free Sapera LT SDK (v8.0 minimum), which includes our GigE driver.
