Teledyne DALSA has announced its next-generation AI-powered BOA™3 smart camera for industrial automation and inspection.

Accordingly, it leverages the best features from previous BOA generations. Moreover, it combines them with new sensor and AI inspection technologies developed by Teledyne.

Teledyne DALSA is a Teledyne Technologies company and a global leader in machine vision technology.

Enables Power Solutions

A highly integrated vision system, the BOA3 comes in a compact, rugged smart camera format. Consequently, it can meet the needs of the most complex, demanding machine vision applications.

“The new BOA3 is an exciting next step in our smart camera development,” said Szymon Chawarski, Product Line Manager, Vision Systems. In addition, Szymon said its modular and flexible architecture enables new and powerful solutions for embedded machine vision inspections.

BOA3 offers sensor resolutions from 1.2 to 12MP, integrated or C-mount lens options and onboard I/O. Furthermore, it includes easy-to-use machine vision software, all in one common platform. BOA3 smart cameras deliver flexibility and uncompromised functionality. Thus, it enables quick, cost-effective embedded machine vision deployments.

BOA3 comes with iNspect™, an easy-to-use, no-code inspection development software with tools for positioning, part locating, pattern matching, measuring, barcode reading, feature or defect detection, including the automatic reading of characters (OCR) based on a pre-trained AI inference network.

Combine the broad range of traditional vision tools with powerful AI Classification or Object Detection models created in Astrocyte™, Teledyne DALSA’s GUI-based AI Trainer software.

Camera Details and Availability

BOA3 models with 1.2, 5MP, and 12MP monochrome sensors are available immediately. Color versions will be available for release at the end of 2024. New sensor and lens options will be added to the platform in 2025.
