How JAI Cameras Can Enhance Your Outdoor and Traffic Imaging Systems

in News

Outdoor and traffic imaging systems have to deal with various challenges, such as changing light conditions, extreme temperatures, shock and vibration, dust and moisture. These challenges require cameras that are robust, reliable, versatile, and high-performance. JAI cameras are designed to meet these requirements and provide superior image quality for various outdoor and traffic applications.

JAI is a global manufacturer of industrial cameras for machine vision, medical imaging, and outdoor imaging applications. JAI offers a wide range of products, including area scan cameras, line scan cameras, multi-sensor cameras, specialized cameras, lenses, software, accessories, while also providing complete camera solutions for traffic imaging/vehicle recognition in intelligent traffic systems (ITS) ³.

 

Some of the highlights of the JAI product line for ITS are:

  1.  Extended operating temperature ranges: JAI cameras can operate in temperatures from -45°C to +70°C ², making them suitable for harsh environments such as deserts or arctic regions.
  2. Robust designs: JAI cameras have rugged housings that protect them from dust, moisture,and shock.They also have built-in features such as sun protection caps, fanless cooling systems,and anti-fogging mechanisms ².
  3. Automatic adaptation to changing light conditions: JAI cameras have advanced auto exposure auto gain and auto white balance functions that adjust the image parameters according to the ambient light.They also have high dynamic range (HDR) modes that capture details in both bright and dark areas ².
  4. High resolution, high speed and high performance: JAI cameras offer resolutions from 0.3 to 45 megapixels ⁴, frame rates up to 292 fps ⁴, line rates up to 200 kHz . They also have various interfaces such as GigE Vision, USB3 Vision,Camera Link,and CoaXPress. They deliver high image quality with low noise low distortion, and excellent color accuracy.
  5. Versatility and flexibility: JAI cameras can be used for various outdoor and traffic applications, such as sports, aerial, surveillance, parking management, toll collection, speed enforcement, lane detection, number plate recognition, color recognition, facial recognition, and more. They can also be customized according to specific customer needs.

 

JAI Series Options

The newest 45 megapixel JAI Spark series comes in four different models and is ideal for Broadcasting (Reply and referee assist), Stadium management (crowd analysis, facility checks goal line technology), Traffic/Outdoor settings, and high-end surveillance and facial recognition.

The new 45-megapixel models leverage the CoaXPress 2.0 standard to double the maximum data transfer rate of each CXP lane. Whereas previous models were limited to 6.25 Gbps per lane (CXP-6), the new "CXP4A" and "CXP2A" models can provide CXP-6 or CXP-12 lane speeds – up to 12.5 Gbps per lane.
That means the SP-45000M-CXP4A and SP-45000C-CXP4A can deliver up to 50 Gbps over its four CXP-12 interface lanes.

Additionally, the Spark Series cameras feature advanced functions like in-camera pattern correction, multi-ROI, true correlated double sampling (selected models), combined analog and digital gain control (selected models), and efficient global shutters to ensure low noise and high quality images with high pixel uniformity.
