Applications<br />
The <strong>MiniPIXIE</strong> cameras are suitable for a wide range of industrial<br />
and research applications:<br />
• <strong>Industrial</strong> applications in vision systems where a compact, robust<br />
camera with a high resulution is needed<br />
• Research applications - often in conjunction with optical systems<br />
like micro- and endoscopes<br />
Why the <strong>MiniPIXIE</strong>?<br />
• The <strong>MiniPIXIE</strong> cameras offer excellent and unmatched performance<br />
at a very attractive price for applications where standard<br />
cameras without special features are needed<br />
• Excellent image quality with resolutions of 1.3, 2 or 3 Megapixels<br />
- allowing to see the smallest details<br />
• <strong>AOS</strong> supported integration into your vision system via SDK<br />
• Assembled, cleaned and tested by <strong>AOS</strong> in Switzerland<br />

Imaging for smart decisions<br />
<strong>MiniPIXIE</strong> - the ultra-compact vision cameras<br />
at an attractive price for standard industrial vision and research applications<br />
Unique features<br />
Despite its ultra-compact size, the <strong>MiniPIXIE</strong> combines an unique<br />
set of features with a price-/perfromance ration not avaiable anywhere<br />
else. Different than ‹cheap› cameras, it offers a quality needed<br />
for industrial applications.<br />
• Exceptional quality due to a robust all-aluminium housing<br />
• Mounting threads on all four sides for easy installation<br />
• CS- and C-mount camera thread with a fine-tuneable lens ring for<br />
precise adjustment for a correct back focus dustance - very important<br />
if the <strong>MiniPIXIE</strong> is used on close-up optical systems like<br />
micro-, endo- or borescopes.<br />
• The camera interface is compatible with DirectX, TWAIN as well as<br />
with 3rd party software packages as HALCON and NI LabView.<br />
