What is a Line Scan Camera?
• A line scan camera is similar to a fax machine, photocopier or scanner.
![Page 4: Graftek Imaging, Inc. A National Instruments Alliance Member Providing Complete Solutions For Image Acquisition and Analysis.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062516/56649d6e5503460f94a4f2c3/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
• Unlike a photocopier or a scanner, a line scan camera is able to image very large and 3D objects.
![Page 5: Graftek Imaging, Inc. A National Instruments Alliance Member Providing Complete Solutions For Image Acquisition and Analysis.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062516/56649d6e5503460f94a4f2c3/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
• Line scan cameras use a one dimensional array to create a two dimensional image.

• A two dimensional image results from the movement of the camera or object.

• The image is acquired line by line as the object moves perpendicularly relative to the sensor.
• Single lines or complete two dimensional images can be transferred to the host PC for display, processing or archiving.

Line Scan Camera Applications
• Most line scan camera applications involve either moving the object or moving the camera.
• When the object is moving, the line scan camera behaves like a fax machine. The object is fed past the sensor.
• When the camera is moving, the line scan camera is like a photocopier or scanner. The sensor of the line scan camera sweeps across the object.

Choosing a Line Scan Camera
![Page 21: Graftek Imaging, Inc. A National Instruments Alliance Member Providing Complete Solutions For Image Acquisition and Analysis.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062516/56649d6e5503460f94a4f2c3/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Choosing a Line Scan Camera
• Select Camera Resolution• Select Camera Line Rate• Select Camera Output
![Page 22: Graftek Imaging, Inc. A National Instruments Alliance Member Providing Complete Solutions For Image Acquisition and Analysis.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062516/56649d6e5503460f94a4f2c3/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Camera resolution• Select the camera’s resolution based on the
application’s requirements.• Resolution is determined by dividing the available
number of pixels into the field of view (FOV).• Line scan cameras are available with the following
resolutions:512, 1024, 2048, 4096, 6144 and 8192
• A 1024 pixel linear camera viewing a 1m FOV would have a resolution of approximately 1mm per pixel (0.9765625mm).
![Page 23: Graftek Imaging, Inc. A National Instruments Alliance Member Providing Complete Solutions For Image Acquisition and Analysis.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062516/56649d6e5503460f94a4f2c3/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Line Rate• Divide the rate of motion by the per pixel
resolution to determine the minimum line rate, for example
10 meters per second / 1mm resolution = 10 KHz line rate
• A line rate that is too slow or too fast will result in geometric distortion of the object

Tech Tip:
Over scanning an object can accentuate defects.

Available Line Rates
• As the number of pixels increases, the maximum line rate of a linear cameras decreases:
1024 x 1 pixel = 79 kHz2048 x 1 pixel = 36 kHz4096 x 1 pixel = 18 kHz6144 x 1 pixel = 12 kHz8196 x 1 pixel = 9 kHz
• Note: Maximum exposure time decreases as the line rate increases.

Choosing a Lens• Line scan camera sensors are typically larger
than area camera sensors, resulting in the need for large format lenses.
• Typical area camera sensors range from 3.6mm x 2.4mm in size to 12.8 mm x 8.8 mm.
• Line scan camera sensors range from 5.12 mm to 57.37 mm wide.

Types of Lenses
• Line Scan cameras with 1024 or fewer use C-mount or F-mount lenses.
• Line Scan cameras with 2048 or more pixels use F-mount (photography) or specialty lenses.

Determining Focal Length• Sensor Size (SS): Multiply Cell Size by the
number of cells (Example: 10m x 1024 = 10.24mm)
• Field of View (FOV: What is the viewable area?)
• Focal Length = SS*(Distance/FOV)Lens

Acquisition Modes
• Free running- the camera acquires lines at a predetermined rate, if the rate of movement changes the image will elongate or contract proportionally.
• Encoded- the line rate of the camera is determined by an encoder. A single line is generated each time the camera receives a pulse from an encoder.
![Page 35: Graftek Imaging, Inc. A National Instruments Alliance Member Providing Complete Solutions For Image Acquisition and Analysis.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062516/56649d6e5503460f94a4f2c3/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Free Running
• Objects contract and elongate as the rate of motion changes.
![Page 36: Graftek Imaging, Inc. A National Instruments Alliance Member Providing Complete Solutions For Image Acquisition and Analysis.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062516/56649d6e5503460f94a4f2c3/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
Encoded
• The image’s geometry remains constant as the rate of motion changes.

Triggered Acquisition
• Like area scan cameras, the start of each image can be triggered via an external TTL signal.
• Line scan cameras can also take advantage of Variable Height Acquisition. Here, the beginning and end of the image is determined by a TTL signal, varying the size of the image to match changes in the length of the object.
![Page 39: Graftek Imaging, Inc. A National Instruments Alliance Member Providing Complete Solutions For Image Acquisition and Analysis.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062516/56649d6e5503460f94a4f2c3/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
Continuous Image Acquisition
• When the inspection is of a continuous object (for example a moving web or cable), it is not necessary to provide a trigger signal.
• The image is transferred to the host for processing based on frame grabber and application requirements.
![Page 40: Graftek Imaging, Inc. A National Instruments Alliance Member Providing Complete Solutions For Image Acquisition and Analysis.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062516/56649d6e5503460f94a4f2c3/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
Triggered Image Acquisition
• When the inspection is of discreet objects, it is necessary to synchronize the start of image acquisition with the arrival of the component/object.

Light Guides
• A line lights can be used as a bright field, diffuse on axis, dark field or backlight.
• Pairs of line lights can be used to achieve different lighting geometries or to increase the amount of available light.
