The fully redesigned, next generationFlea3camera series builds on the success of the ultra-compact Flea2 by adding new Sony image sensors to the line-up and a choice of IEEE 1394b (FireWire) or GigE Vision digital interface. Measuring just 29 x 29 x 30 mm and weighing only 58 grams, the Flea3 has the same small, lightweight form factor as many industry-standard “ice cube” analog cameras. The Flea3 also offers a host of new features, including enhanced opto-isolated GPIO; an on-camera frame buffer; non-volatile user data storage; new trigger modes; and improved imaging performance. |

The new Grasshopper Express camera series features a completely new hardware
platform designed to accommodate a wide range of high speed Kodak and Sony image
sensors. The Grasshopper Express is housed in the same compact metal case as the
original Grasshopper. The camera also comes complete with a variety of new
features, including enhanced opto-isolated GPIO, new hardware trigger modes, and
improved imaging performance.
