Why Gain can be a benefits or not
In a standard process
Trig -> exposure -> Image transfer -> Image processing -> I/O refresh
Framre rate is the equivalent to image tranfer time in a different unit
Frame rate = how many per second
Image transfer time = msec
In automation, overall process time is important, not the frame rate.
2 cameras 5mpx side by side have 5000 pixel wide
1 camera 20mpx has 4000 pixel wide
2 camera 5mpx is usualy less expensive compare to 1 camera 20mpx
Color camera is versatile, monochrome camera is more precise
Color is more for quality inspection and monochrome for barcode, measure, or precise positionning
