Alacron, Inc., makers of high performance frame grabbers and accelerated frame grabber subsystems for more than 25 years, has announced with affiliate company FastVision, LLC their newest product, the FastCamera 200 (FC 200) ultra high speed camera, built around the latest, low noise, high speed CMOS Sensor.
“These newest FastVision cameras now offer one of the quietest CMOS sensor designs in the world,” says Dr. Joseph Sgro, CEO of Alacron, Inc. and FastVision, LLC. “Our new FC 200 camera reflects many advantages of this new sensor including low cost and high speed of 2.15 megapixels running at 270 frames per second. It complements our other new camera, the FC 300, which offers 3.2 megapixels and runs at 180 frames per second.”
Launched by Dr. Sgro in 1985, Alacron is known internationally for its innovative product designs and high quality manufacturing. Its product family of frame grabbers, high speed visual imaging cameras and related subsystems, analytical tools, along with customized hardware, software and integration middleware are deployed worldwide. Alacron’s digital imaging products are used by engineers in many fields, including aerospace, medicine, machine vision, and defense. All Alacron customers benefit from the highest quality products that also boast the kind of performance and durability required by robotic, surveillance, and machine vision applications.
Alacron’s sister company, FastVision, was launched in 2002 with a focus on research and development for, and production of very high speed smart cameras and recording systems.
“Dr. Sgro’s background and on-going interest in neurology and advanced mathematics, gives him a unique insight into R&D and manufacturer of products that address real world demands for integrated design and the need for highest quality products,” said Paul Stanton, head engineer at Alacron. “Dr. Sgro’s choice of the next generation CMOS ultra-fast, ultra-quiet sensors for the FC 200 provide users with a unique camera which has real advantages in crucial global markets such as medical, military and manufacturing.”
