(JAI: San Jose, CA) -- JAI, developer and manufacturer of high-quality industrial and machine vision cameras, has introduced the AD-130GE, a new 2-CCD multispectral camera, offering significantly greater resolution and light sensitivity than the company’s first-generation models. Like the existing AD-080 series, the AD-130GE incorporates a dichroic prism to provide simultaneous capture of both color and near-infrared (NIR) digital video on a single optical path for efficient multispectral inspection and analysis.

As the model number implies, the AD-130GE provides 1.3 megapixel resolution (1296 × 966 pixels) compared to the 0.8-megapixel resolution of the existing AD-080 series. Using two precisely aligned 1/3 in. Sony ICX447 charge coupled devices (CCDs), the AD-130GE maintains a comparable capture rate to the AD-080 series (31 frames per second), while taking advantage of increased sensitivity, especially in the NIR portion of the spectrum.
