FLIR A68 Thermal Camera (30Hz) - 24 or 42° Lens
FLIR A68 - Thermal Cameras for Machine Vision
Compact and therefore ideal for machine vision integration, the FLIR A68 Thermal Camera is an infrared imager with a 640 x 480px IR resolution, 30Hz frame rate, and a fixed focus that can be adjusted using an Allen key.
Compliant with GigE Vision and GenICam, it delivers a stable GigE Vision stream as well as an 8-bit or 16-bit IR stream. The FLIR A68 Thermal Camera is also compatible with FLIR Spinnaker, Sapera, and third-party SDKs.
The FLIR A68 Thermal Camera is a small, high-resolution infrared imager with digital zoom, perfect for machine vision applications.
Simplified Setup for Complex Applications
The uncomplicated design has valuable features, including a 60 Hz frame rate, 8- and 16-bit video streaming, and Power over Ethernet.
Easy Integration into Existing Systems
Standard vision camera protocols allow the cameras to integrate seamlessly into GenICam™ compliant software, resulting in accelerated system development and solution deployment.
Swa-Pc Optimised
At just 29 x 36 x 59 mm (5.1 x 5.5 x 3.9 in), FLIR A68 cameras are small enough to fit in tight spaces but rugged enough to withstand temperatures up to 60°C (140°F).
