(JAI: San Jose, CA) -- JAI, manufacturer of high quality, industrial-grade cameras for machine vision, has introduced new GigE Vision versions of its eight-megapixel, industrial-grade, charge coupled device (CCD) camera series. Like the Camera Link versions introduced earlier in the year, the new AM-800GE (monochrome) and AB-800GE (color) are built around the Kodak KAI-08050 quad-tap sensor, providing an attractive combination of resolution, image fidelity, and high frame rates.

The cameras deliver full 3296 × 2472 resolution at 10 fps for eight-bit output in monochrome or raw Bayer formats. 10-bit and 12-bit outputs are also selectable, as are multiple options for in-camera color interpolation, including YUV 4:2:2-packed or 24-bit (eight bits per color) RGB-packed formats (AB-800GE only).
