14 MVN Ethernet Camera
MVN Studio 3.0 has the ability to record synchronized MVN and video data. This is possible using the
Ethernet camera (Prosilica GS650) provided with the PRO system. The camera is a high quality
professional GigE camera with a C mount. The GigE interface enables the use of long cables (max
100m) and standard 1 Gigabit Ethernet cards for interfacing. The currently supported frame rate in MVN
Studio is limited, but the camera itself is capable of 120 frames per second (fps), depending on lighting
conditions. The camera has a global shutter and is capable of advanced triggering and synchronization
features.
