CV-M91

1. General

The CV-M91 3 CCD RGB color camera is a new updated version of CV-M90. The prism is improved, and new CCD sensors are used. The new CCD sensor has 5 dB higher sensitivity, 15 dB lower smear and 4 dB higher dynamic range. Now there are Y/C output and input for composite sync. Pulse width control shutter is now fully implemented.

CV-M91 is a 3 CCD RGB color camera designed for machine vision and image processing applications where excellent resolution, high quality color reproduction are required.

The compact 3 CCD C-mount optical prism unit is designed for high color quality, and it allows use of a wide range of C-mount lenses.

CV-M91P is the CCIR PAL version, and CV-M91N is the EIA NTSC version.
