Ultra-compact GigE Vision cameras

Mako G-508B POL with Sony IMX250 Polarizer runs 23.0 frames per second at 5.1 MP resolution.

Mako is an attractively priced GigE Vision-compliant camera in a compact rugged industrial housing. Many models include advanced functionalities such as Precision Time Protocol (PTP), Trigger over Ethernet (ToE) Action Commands, and Power over Ethernet (PoE). Screw mount RJ45 connector and multiple I/Os facilitate your straightforward system integration. Mako cameras are also avilable as Near Infrared (NIR) and polarizer variants.
