Point Grey Research® Set to Launch the New Firefly® MV

Point Grey Research will launch the Firefly MV, its latest IEEE-1394 camera at next week's Vision Show East in Boston, MA.


25x40mm Firefly MV

The Firefly MV is one of the smallest IEEE-1394 cameras with external trigger and strobe functionality available on the market. PGR anticipates a surge in demand from both industrial and non-industrial imaging applications especially with the Firefly MV priced under $200 USD.

Based on the Micron MTV9V022 1/3 inch CMOS sensor with global shutter, the Firefly MV delivers high quality 640 x 480 images at 60 FPS. The Firefly MV is available in both monochrome and color models.

Features of the Firefly MV include a 10-bit digitizer, auto and manual controls of gain and shutter, high sensitivity in the near-IR, 2x2 binning for even faster frame rates and better signal-to-noise ratios and in field firmware upgrades.

  • Firefly® MV IEEE-1394 board level digital camera unit
  • Microlens holder pre-mounted to board with 6mm high quality microlens
