Color Camera (1.3MPx) with Lens (12.5mm), LED Light and Support

MA732

Camera used to image the sample

SKU: MA732 Categories: ,

This versatile camera can be used for a wide variety of applications from sample imaging, deformation tracking, digital image correlation, Poisson’s ratio evaluation, photodocumentation and much more. It is mounted on a manual positioning arm and comes with a 12.5mm focal length lens. The minimum field of view is 7.1 mm which is suitable for most testing application. This high quality and high-performance camera is equipped with a CMOS sensor and provides 1280x1024px images at 10 frames per second synchronized and timestamped with mechanical data. The resolution is 1.3 MP with a 1/2″ sensor size and 4.8×4.8um pixel size. Using the camera manufacturer’s unsynchronized software, a frame rate of 203 fps is possible, limited only by the performance of the PC.

  • Easy to assemble and mount on the tester
  • Occupies little laboratory space and is easy to lift for convenient re-location
  • Data can also be imported into third-party software for further analysis

FAQ

What is the procedure for installing the Mapping Toolbox software for the first time?
  1. Install the Point Grey Research’s camera drivers by clicking on “FlyCaptureVersion.exe” (where “Version” corresponds to the latest released version) and by following on-screen instructions (it is recommended to use the “Complete” setup type and selections shown in the following figures). Note that the drivers can also be downloaded from (www.ptgrey.com).
  2. Install the latest version of Mapping Toolbox by clicking on “setup.exe” from the Mapping Toolbox software folder “Installer/Volume”. Contact Biomomentum for a license or to activate any purchased software add-ons. Refer to the user manual for details on the Software Licensing Agreement.
  3. Plug the camera in a compatible USB port of your computer.
  4. To verify proper camera installation, you can run the Point Grey FlyCap2 software installed on your computer during driver’s installation.

Please note that these items can be purchased from Biomomentum.
What is Digital Image Correlation
Digital Image Correlation (DIC) is an analytical method relying on set of images to track 2D changes within images. Multiple synchronized sets can also be used to track 3D changes within images. It offers full field analysis of material and enables the characterization of local mechanical properties as well as interaction between components in a compound of materials. As a non-contact displacement and strain measurement method, it enables characterization of soft materials without interfering with their mechanical properties. This method is thus well adapted for assessment of biological and composite material, as well as geometrically complex materials, submitted to different constraint. As a method of full field assessment of material, results from these analyses can also be used as validation for FEA models.
