The NI 1744 Smart Camera, powered by a 533 MHz PowerPC processor, is a real-time target for machine vision. The high-quality Sony CCD image sensor acquires monochrome SXGA (1280 x 1024) resolution images. This camera has four times the resolution of the NI 1722 and 1742 Smart Cameras.
Camera I/O includes two optoisolated digital inputs, two optoisolated digital outputs, one RS232 serial port, and two gigabit Ethernet ports. The NI 1744 also features quadrature encoder support and a direct drive lighting controller that can drive current controlled lights up to 500 mA continuous or 1 A strobed.
You can program NI Smart Cameras with the NI LabVIEW Real-Time and NI Vision Development modules or configure the camera with NI Vision Builder for Automated Inspection (AI). NI Smart Cameras include fully functional copies of Vision Builder AI software to configure the camera.
