Product Description:

The VSS122F11.02BP-000 belongs to the VS Smart Sensors series manufactured by B&R Automation. It is listed in the Smart Sensor product group and the integrated machine vision product range, meaning the unit captures images and processes them locally to guide machines, verify product quality, or read codes without an external PC. Within an automation cell, it supplies a compact vision node that can be mounted close to the target surface.

The imaging assembly is driven by a Cortex A9 i.MX6 processor clocked at 800 MHz, and its on-chip 1 MB L2 cache helps maintain low latency between consecutive inspections. A factory-installed lens with a focal length of 4.6 mm (F3.5, 1/1.8 in.) pairs with plastic front glass that has an anti-reflective coating to limit glare from machine lights. The sensor streams images at up to 90 fps, allowing fast conveyor tracking. Illumination is produced by 16 LEDs arranged in four individually switchable segments; these white emitters use LED lens type 1 in a wide-beam format. A restriction notes that this variant cannot be combined with IR lighting or an alternate type 1 lens. The white lighting covers the visible spectrum, and the optical stack is secured in an S-mount holder. Line-sensor operation is not supported.

For runtime resources, the unit offers 4 CPU cores backed by 2 GB of RAM, enabling one active vision function plus standard on-sensor preprocessing. Image detail is captured at 1.3 MP, and a diagonal field of view of 74° covers wide work zones without repositioning the housing. The standard variant designation applies both to preprocessing performance and to the hardware option set, ensuring compatibility with integrated machine vision libraries. Because a line sensor is not supported on this model, scene coverage relies solely on the area sensor and the white, wide-beam lighting strategy.
