Geodetic V-Stars
Portable and highly accurate, the V-STARS range is available in single camera and multi-camera real-time measurement system configurations.
The inherent advantages of photogrammetry are: non-contact, immune to vibration and movement, and supports fast on-site automatic data processing.
V-STARS S
In V-STARS S Mode, a single camera is used to record a set of images of a targeted object from multiple points of view.
S-mode is also termed off-line photogrammetry because the computation of 3D object point coordinates takes place after the images are recorded and loaded onto the PC for processing by V-STARS.
The highest possible accuracy and versatility attainable with V-STARS automated 3D coordinate measurement is produced via an S Mode system incorporating the INCA4 camera.
There are four S-Mode system configurations of V-STARS. All are highly portable and comprise a single high-resolution digital camera, a notebook computer, V-STARS software for automatic data processing, and accessories.
V-STARS D
V-STARS D is a remotely operated industrial photogrammetry option that functions as an optical CMM, but is configured with multiple high-speed DynaMo cameras that support a measurement rate of 10 Hz.
These cameras are light weight and compact with wide fields of view and large operating ranges. They also incorporate a low visibility flash system and a positive pressure ‘dust off’ system.
V-STARS D system is ideal for in-place, real-time operations where cameras are positioned within a fixed, measurement cell configuration for extended periods of time. It is well suited to high-speed dynamic monitoring of object movement and deformation, as well as to repeat inspection within an assembly line environment.
V-STARS N
The V-STARS N series, offers an innovative, more affordable V-STAR S option. It has three lightweight, ruggedized digital SLR camera options, with each of the cameras being especially customized for specific photogrammetric applications:
- V-STARS N Platinum - for high-precision industrial metrology
- V-STARS N Gold - comprehensive measurement functionality at a reduced cost
- V-STARS N Silver - a work-horse system for engineering / industrial measurement tasks with less demanding accuracy requirements
Along with the camera, the N system comprises a notebook computer, V-STARS software for automatic data processing, and accessories, all of which fits into two small cases that can travel as carry-on luggage.
Features:
- High accuracy
- Totally non-contact
- Fast results - produce results on site within minutes of completing photography of the object
- Flexibility - routinely used across a wide range of applications
- Portable
- Minimal temperature effect
- Immune to vibration
- Versatile in confined spaces
- High data rates - capable of measuring thousands of points in the same amount of time it takes to measure hundreds.
- Can operate in thermal vacuum environments
- The PRO-SPOT target projection system enables the measurement of thousands of points on a surface without applying a single target.
