Allied Vision launch Manta Models with second gen Sony IMX CMOS sensor

Allied Vision has expanded its Manta camera offering with two new models which incorporate second-generation Sony IMX complementary metal oxide semiconductor sensors with global shutter pixel technology. The devices are ideally suited for industrial applications that require accurate imaging of fast-moving objects. The Manta G-158 incorporates the IMX273 sensor and is said to offer a resolution of 1.58 megapixels and a frame rate of 75.3 fps at full resolution. In addition, Manta G-040 is equipped with

Allied Vision has expanded its Manta camera offering with two new models which incorporate second-generation Sony IMX complementary metal oxide semiconductor sensors with global shutter pixel technology. The devices are ideally suited for industrial applications that require accurate imaging of fast-moving objects.


The Manta G-158 incorporates the IMX273 sensor and is said to offer a resolution of 1.58 megapixels and a frame rate of 75.3 fps at full resolution. In addition, Manta G-040 is equipped with the IMX287 sensor with the intention of providing a resolution of 0.40 Megapixels and a frame rate of 286 fps at full resolution.

Both models come with the Trigger over Ethernet Action Commands feature, enabling them to be triggered via their Power over Ethernet connection. It allows users to realise single cable solutions with data, power and trigger capabilities.

These cameras are available in colour and monochrome variants.

    Hikvision has added to its DeepinView camera line with what it calls the Dedicated subseries.

    The company says this loads a batch of artificial intelligence-powered deep learning algorithms into each unit, which are of use in two distinct categories.

    The first is vehicle analysis, where cameras combine automatic number plate recognition with vehicle attribute recognition - including make, colour and direction of movement. 

    Typical installations would be on city streets and at the entrances of car parks and buildings.

    Satellite-based tolling opens up new options for authorities and can be integrated with DSRC systems as David Crawford discovers. As the proud custodian of the European Union (EU)’s longest road network covered by a single (truck) charging scheme – and the only one to include all major roads - Slovakia has become the continent’s poster-nation for the virtues of GNSS/CN (Global Navigation Satellite System/Cellular Network)-based tolling. It is also proved to be a very fast implementer. Speaking at the 2014 I

    A new generation of ITS equipment is helping road authorities get to grips with cycle safety – and not a moment too soon as Colin Sowman discovers. Cyclists - remember them? Apparently not. At least not according to the OECD 2013 report Cycling, Health and Safety which contains the statement: ‘Cyclists are often forgotten in the design of the road traffic system’. Looking through the statistics that exist (each country appears to compile them differently) it is not difficult to see how such a conclusion cou
