| Definition | The camera system aboard the National Oceanography Centre's Autosub6000 autonomous underwater vehicle is often called the AESA camera, named after the original project associated with its design (Autonomous Ecological Surveying of the Abyss). It uses the FLIR (formerly Point Gray Research Inc.) Grasshopper 2 GS2-GE-50S5C-C camera (5 MP). This is based on the Sony ICX625 CCD imaging sensor. More than one camera can be fitted in various orientations (e.g. oblique, downward-looking etc). The camera is fitted with a Navitar NMV-8M23 Machine Vision Lens, and a bespoke inhouse-developed Xenon high speed flash, with a 10J driver circuit. The camera sensor and lens are housed in bespoke inhouse-developed housing with a flat viewport. The 10J flash is housed in similar housing with the same flat viewport. The camera system can be removed and mounted on other NOC-owned vehicles such as the Remotely Operated Vehicle (ROV) ISIS, with the same setup and configuration. Image Data Output: 8, 12, 16 and 24-bit digital data. 1000 Mbit/s data transfer rate. Operating temperature: 0 to 40 degC. | |
