Ahrensburg, June 11, 2015 – Camera manufacturer Basler is taking its dart board level camera into series production. It opens up a new world of applications in a product series combining modern USB 3.0 camera technology, a highly cost-optimized design and Basler's proven quality and reliability. Like all Basler products the dart also offers an extremely appealing price-performance ratio: it is available from 99 €.

Customers can also pick from a range of accessories that are perfectly adapted for the dart, such as the Basler Lenses, lens adapter, matching cables and an I/O starter kit. These components, available through Basler, all help the dart board level camera integrate quickly and easily.

The dart camera models are equipped with Aptina CMOS sensors with 1.2 to 5 MP resolution and deliver up to 54 frames per second. Customers can choose among three mount models: S mount, CS mount and a bare board without mount, which offers broad flexibility during system setup. The bare board variant measures just 27 x 27 mm at 5 g of weight, while the two mount versions are just 29 x 29 mm at 15 g of weight.

The dart is one of the few board level cameras being compliant with the USB3 Vision standard, meaning secure data transfer and simple integration into image processing systems, both on the hardware and software sides.
