PINNACLE 100GigE Line Scan Cameras (LZ Series)
PINNACLE is Emergent’s ultra-high-speed 100GigE line scan camera family, built around the QSFP28 interface and designed for high-throughput line-scan inspection and capture systems. The series includes mono and trilinear models (e.g., LZ-16KG5 is mono/color and trilinear), as well as 256 TDI models that increase effective light collection for sharper imaging in low light and/or at high speeds.
PINNACLE supports GigE Vision 3.0 and RDMA/RoCEv2 workflows for low-latency, high-throughput streaming, and can be synchronized to 1 µs in multi-camera systems.
