LIRA family

The Celera camera series is the second step of Alkeria in the world of standard cameras for machine vision. Born from the experience gained with OEM projects for pharma and industrial sectors, Celera is Alkeria’s showdown of its expertise in USB3 cameras. Alkeria is an italian company that develops and produces high-performances machine vision cameras and image acquisition tools for science and industry. Alkeria Srl Via Giuntini, 25 - int.

LIRA board camera is small and flexible, providing uncompressed high-resolution images and videos, with maximum adaptability to any available space; given its impressive image quality and reliable design, LIRA is perfect for industrial, machine-vision and medical imaging applications.
The remote sensor head can also be assembled together with the board if needed. These two mounting options let the camera match tight space requirements for any kind of application.
Lira cameras are powered directly by the USB3 bus eliminating the need for external power adapters adapters with the most cost effective and widespread interface, pushing speed performances at the top.

Designed and developed specifically to the OEM market, LIRA is an open platform for custom designed integrations and on-board operations. A starting point for deep on-board calculation and custom operations, LIRA will be the best partner for your project.

Lira’s complete set of image controls and the TripleLUT feature available on Lira camera series provide powerful onboard image processing, leveraging PC applications from heavy computation.
LIRA cameras provide real-time image capture for time-critical applications, various triggering modes as well as different hardware and software sources. The general purpose multi-IO connectors feature 6 inputs and 6 outputs.

An easy-to-use set of software API is available which allows developers to quickly produce fast and well readable code on Windows (VC++/C#/VB.Net) and Linux (C++).

In order to comply to earlier solutions, LIRA still can be adapted to Firewire™ technology with the same sensor and mounting options.
