IDT: Mastering Time

A “state-of-the-art” CMOS sensor combined with the most advanced features we and our customers could think of, resulted in a new product line: the Y-series.

The Y3 captures 1280 x 1024 images with a speed of 1000 fps (up to 2000 fps in Plus mode and frame rates up to 100,000 fps possible at lower vertical resolution. The Y4 captures 1024 x 1024 images with a speed of 4000 fps (up to 8000 fps in Plus mode and frame rates up to 256,000 fps possible at lower vertical resolution. The Y5 captures 2352 x 1728 images with a speed of 500 fps (up to 1000 fps in Plus mode and frame rates up to 39,000 fps possible at lower vertical resolution). The Y6 captures 1504 x 1128 images with a speed of 1200 fps.

A large internal RAM memory, up to 16 GB accommodates long recording times. Two interfaces (Gigabit Ethernet or USB-2) accommodate easy communication with multiple cameras (a mix of Y, X, M and MotionXtra cameras).

The new design offers a high refresh rate during recording and playback through the digital HDMI-output. The use of composite materials and a smart mechanical design results in a shock resistant camera up to 100G. The optional battery pack offers backup of the images in case of a power surge but also autonomous use up to 30 minutes.
