Quote mark

We turned to JAI because we have had very high demands regarding the image quality of the cameras that JAI was able to meet with the Spark SP-45000 model.

In addition to the excellent resolution of 45-megapixels, it was also important to us that the integrated camera had outstanding shock and vibration resistance and allowed distributed image processing on several PCs.
