Camera specs

Post by alfiop »

We are experimenting with 3d reconstruction using a couple of optitrack cameras, and if tests are successful we plan on buying more, but I was not able to find on the web site specs like:

- focal length of the wide-FoV lens
- dimensions of the CCD chip in mm, or alternatively brand/model of the chip.

Can these specs be provided? If they are on a web page, can you point me there?

Hello:

These are good questions and I can provide you with the answers here.

The wide FOV lens is 2.1mm

The image array is 352X288 1/7" 2.2mmX1.8mm with a square pixel pitch of 6micron.

Let us know how we can help.

Hi,

Could you please tell me what the focal length of the default lense is?
Thanks.

why does the internal camera parameter function return a value of 355x288 as width X height?

The functional image that is sent from the camera is slightly larger than the area specified in the imager data sheet, the SDK returns the larger image area to reflect the additional availalble pixels.
