NIR: Seeing Clearly Even in Low Light

This article was originally published at Basler's website. It is reprinted here with the permission of Basler. What is unique about NIR Cameras? “Near-infrared” (NIR) is the portion of the electromagnetic spectrum directly adjacent to the visible range; therefore it cannot be perceived with the human eye. NIR-optimized industrial cameras are popular for applications that

Speed Matters

This article was originally published at Basler's website. It is reprinted here with the permission of Basler. For many machine vision applications, image data must be acquired, transmitted and evaluated within a set timeframe. This is known as “real-time capability”. This term can apply to a system, its components, and the software that communicates between
