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.

    Every day 185 million vehicles – cars, trucks, school buses, emergency response units - cross one or more of America’s 55,710 'structurally compromised' steel and concrete road bridges, the highest concentration of which are in Iowa (nearly 5,000), Pennsylvania and Oklahoma. Nearly 2,000 of these crossings are located on interstate highways, according to the American Road and Transportation Builders Association's recent analysis of the US Department of Transportation's 2016 National Bridge Inventory.

    According to the IDTechEx report Range Extenders for Electric Vehicles Land, Water & Air 2015-2025, over eight million hybrid cars will be made in 2025, with a range extender, the additional power source that distinguishes them from pure-electric. They will also be in buses, military vehicles and boats: a major new market overall. Today's range extenders consist of little more than off-the-shelf internal combustion engines. They are being replaced by second-generation range extenders - piston engines design
