Teledyne FLIR IIS has introduced the new Dragonfly S USB3 camera series to its machine vision portfolio. Particularly, the new series is a result of Teledyne’s constant commitment to set and enhance vision industry standards.

Moreover, it addresses the market’s essential need for a modular, compact, and lightweight camera for at-scale manufacturing. Also, suitable for volume-based applications and multi-camera systems.

First for Factory Automation

Dragonfly S has a modular design to accelerate the inception stage of imaging application development. Especially, for a diverse range of industrial and non-industrial segments.

Sadiq Panjwani, General Manager at Teledyne IIS said, “This is a first-of-its-kind practical option for factory automation and embedded vision-based device manufacturers.”

Furthermore, Panjwani said, “The modular concept of the new camera empowers engineers to quickly test, develop, and deliver competitive vision products to market at scale.”

The camera series suits embedded or handheld device applications such as biometrics kiosk solutions, ophthalmoscopy, 3D scanning, automated optical inspection, and more. It comes in multiple configurations, from board level to a fully enclosed module in a ruggedized aluminum case.

The USB connector comes in a rear or side orientation with a screw-in locking mechanism. Thus, these modular options provide maximum flexibility and durability, allowing seamless integration in tight spaces.

The cased models have Class B EMC safety-compliant standards. This mitigating electromagnetic interference is critical for healthcare and residential applications.

In addition, an onboard image buffer ensures that every captured image frame is reliably transferred to the host CPU.

The first of its series Dragonfly S is now available for pre-order. More model releases from VGA to 8MP variations will also happen this year.
