| New BackEye camera for ROVVER  The new BackEye auxiliary camera lets a ROVVER operator see behind the crawler in order to steer around obstacles and prevent cable tangles during reverse travel. The accessory also includes three forward-facing narrow-beam LED lamps to improve forward viewing. It is available as a retrofit for existing ROVVER 125/225 crawlers, and as an option for new ROVVER 125/225 crawlers. BackEye's ultra-sensitive monochrome camera uses compact infrared illumination to achieve impressive sight range while consuming just 0.8 watts of power. The camera's ¼" CCD imager measures 765 x 582 pixels, allowing it to capture video at high-resolution. Automatic shutter and white balance ensure optimum video exposure.To improve forward viewing, BackEye also incorporates three or six 5-watt LED lamps, each focused to a 5º beam for maximum range. These lamps augment the illumination built into ROVVER's forward-viewing inspection camera. BackEye is made of stainless steel and anodized aluminum. Makrolon windows protect the forward-facing LED lamps and rear-facing IR lamp; a scratch-resistant sapphire window protects the rear-viewing camera. The accessory measures just 3.75" x 3.39" x 1.46" and attaches/detaches easily to/from the ROVVER top-plate. write your comments about the article :: © 2007 Construction News :: home page |
