Product catalog summary
Overview: The pco.dimax HD and HD+ are high-speed CMOS cameras designed for applications requiring high resolution and color fidelity. They offer excellent ISO speed and are capable of capturing high-speed sequences at full HD resolutions.
Specifications: The cameras support resolutions of 1920 x 1080 pixels for HD and 1920 x 1440 pixels for HD+. They can achieve frame rates of up to 2128 fps for HD and 1603 fps for HD+. The exposure/shutter time ranges from 1.5 µs to 40 ms, with a dynamic range of 12 bits and a pixel scan rate of 55 MHz.
Features: The pco.dimax cameras include a Correlated Double Image (CDI) mode for enhanced dynamic range and low light performance. They offer precise synchronization and triggering options, including master-slave mode and various trigger signals. The cameras are equipped with a global shutter mode and provide a high quantum efficiency of 50% at peak.
Image Quality: The cameras achieve high color image quality through sophisticated techniques and optimized color calibration, meeting ISO Standard 17321 with an SMI of 83. They are capable of recording images with low dark signal non-uniformity (DSNU) and improved low light performance.
Applications: The pco.dimax cameras are used in various fields such as automobile safety tests, motion analysis, material testing, and broadcasting. They are suitable for applications like 3D motion analysis, high-speed particle image velocimetry, and industrial quality control.
Technical Data: The cameras have a power consumption of 80 W, weigh 7.9 kg, and operate within a temperature range of +5 °C to +40 °C. They are CE/FCC certified and offer interfaces like USB 3.0, GigE, and HD-SDI.
Software and Options: PCO provides Camware software for camera control and image acquisition. The cameras are available in monochrome and color versions, with options for rechargeable battery packs and custom configurations.

pco.dimax HD | high speed CMOS cameras free of session referencing With innovative use of on chip information, the pco.dimax offers an operation free from session referencing, which does not require any additional mechanical shutter for dark referencing. The pco.dimax incorporates an internal fully automatic referencing feature that does not require additional operator intervention. Therefore it is possible to change frame rates “on the fly” (during recording). color image quality The pco.dimax incorporates sophisticated techniques to achieve its high color image quality, proven and recommended...

pco.dimax HD | high speed CMOS cameras applications automobile safety tests motion analysis physical science The recording of high speed sequences of safety tests is a requirement by law for car manufacturers. But more and more these recordings are as well used for 3D measurements to improve the modelling. Nature documentation and super slow motion are a recent combination, which attracts people to watch and get new insights into animal life. Here ducklings were observed with a pco.dimax HD+ by Blue Paw Artists in Guyana. The documentation and subsequent motion analysis are also important tools...
