Housed Analog Zoom Block Camera System Now Available with USB Connector

Feb. 8, 2010 - PRLog -- Arizona based Aegis Electronic Group, Inc., a stocking distributor specializing in the distribution, integration and support of visible and Near IR cameras, components and modified integrated system solutions for industrial and machine vision imaging applications has announced that their highly successful analog zoom block camera kits are now available with USB-2.0, offering power, video, and controls over one connector.

Available in 10X, 18X, 26X or 36X zoom, camera functions including auto focus, auto iris and auto zoom are controlled via RS232 and are Direct Show Compatible with Windows.

“USB 2.0 is still the favored interface used throughout the world due to the simplicity of use and inexpensive cost associated with the integration of USB systems.  Whether for commercial or personal use, USB is a standard that continues to hold its own amidst the development of faster, more complex interfaces like Gigabit Ethernet and Camera Link because USB is what people know and what they are comfortable using.  The anticipation surrounding the release of Superspeed USB (also known as USB 3.0) next year is a perfect example of why offering a USB housing assembly for the popular Sony block camera series became the next logical step in the evolution of such an incredibly versatile block camera assembly line.” Nicole Zamora, Business Development, Aegis Electronic Group

Housing assemblies include an FCB analog zoom block camera, Interface board and choice of custom panel mount connectors or cabling (with or without connectors) inside a black, cold rolled steel housing that can be customized to meet individual application needs.  Assembly also includes a 1/4-20 mount bracket assembly.  Dimensions are 107.95 D x 61.976 T x 63.5 W.
