Why choose Xenics - Wildcat?
Proven machine vision interfaces
Easy integration into your system using standard USB3 or CameraLink components and simple camera configuration via the GenICam interface. These standardised vision interfaces allow a wide range of vision software to be used for data processing.
Easy to integrate in confined spaces
The small housing allows the design of very compact OEM and multi-camera solutions. Integration into existing systems with limited space for machine vision components is simplified.
Excellent image quality with thermoelectric cooling
Thermoelectric cooling, combined with Xenics' advanced proprietary detector and ROIC design, ensures that the sensor has excellent low noise and low dark current characteristics and delivers very high image quality.
High dynamic range for perfect images
In scenes with very bright and very dark areas within the field of view, Xenics detectors significantly expand the dynamic range, enabling perfect, low-noise images to be captured in a single shot.
Xeneth: Graphical user interface to setup, control, record and measure temperature
Xeneth is a graphical user interface that allows for easy set-up and control of infrared cameras and acquisition of images. All IR camera control settings such as integration time, AD settings, detector temperature and gain can be optimised by the user.
Once configured, almost all settings can be uploaded to the cameras for smooth standalone operation with, for example, third-party machine vision applications.
The standard software is supplied free of charge with every Xenics camera for easy set-up and control of the camera.
