pco.dimax HD

pco.dimax HD / HD+
leading image quality in high definition

The pco.dimax HD series combines advanced CMOS- and camera technology. High light sensitivity and best dynamic range complement each other to brilliant Full-HD images – with frame-rates of more than 2000fps.
Especially for automotive car safety tests the HD+ version with 1920 x 1440 pixels offers an aspect ratio of 4:3 to display full scale crash- or sledge testing scenarios. Both models provide a variety of trigger options and synchronization possibilities.
