Prosilica GT 6400
High-resolution cameras for demanding applications
Prosilica GT 6400 with Sony IMX342 runs 3.82 frames per second at 31.4 MP resolution.
The rugged housing optimized for heat dissipation makes Prosilica GT the ideal solution for harsh environments. The various lens control options allow constant adjustment of the image brightness to changing light conditions. Offering resolutions of up to 31 megapixels, they are ideal for high-definition imaging applications with demanding requirements of robustness and design-in flexibility.
