The electronics of the SO-LC70 camera is capable of capturing a true 24-bit RGB image stream up to 7500 pixels in width without a Bayer filter mosaic. This allows a high quality 600dpi imaging of DIN A3 documents or 1200dpi for DIN A5 document size without any interpolation.

The unit resolution depends on the optical part of the camera, light system and set up parameters of the camera. The camera electronics has to be mounted in the customer’s optic system.

The camera is able to scan images with a defined resolution depending on the active number of pixels. Image quality may be enhanced further using precise and adjustable color components alignment (re-mapping) capability, LUT-based contrast enhancement module, and advanced debasing techniques. There are several processing options available already in the camera, e.g. horizontal and/or vertical antialiased re-scaling – allowing to get images in resolutions different from the native optical resolution.

The SO-LC70 camera works with BAP Image Engines (IE64-57 and IE64-HS). Both IE64 Image Processing Boards supports two camera inputs serviced in parallel at the same time. All necessary image processing functions can be customized using the open interface. Both image processing units have standard USB2.0 interface to Host-PC. The hardware version of IE64-57 can be equipped with other interfaces (USB3.0., Ethernet).

All necessary image processing functions can be customized using the open interface. Both image processing units have standard USB2.0 interface to  the Host-PC.

This solution can be implemented in different paper transport systems to scan images up to 670 ppm DIN A4 format with 200dpi.

General:

• Resolution:
  from 100dpi up to 600dpi for DIN A3 or 1200dpi for DIN A5
• Speed (depending on line period):   
  DIN A4 landscape 200dpi - 128 IPS (670 DPM)
  DIN A4 landscape 300dpi - 60 IPS (310 DPM)
  DIN A4 portrait 200dpi - 160 IPS (640 DPM)
• Interfaces:   
  Native BAP G-Link (GL) serial interface for image data   
  Camera Link (CL) serial interface for third party frame grabbers (Mini D Ribbon socket)    Bi-directional RS-232 serial communication for configuration command flow
• Cable: UTP CAT-7 (or CameraLink) for image transfer and camera set up

Advantages:

• three-line CCD technology with a true 24-bit RGB o YUV output in the native resolution
• pre-processing of the image
• same device adjustable for various applications, resolutions and scan widths
• adjustable active line lenght
• adjustable line period
• horizontal and vertical image re-scaling
• color components alignment and re-mapping (also fractional)
• LUT based contrast enhancement
• shading correction for different light sources and work conditions
• RGB or YUV output image
• RS232 interface for set up
• and other functions
