Teledyne Dalsa's cameras feature Sony polarised image sensor

Teledyne Dalsa has launched its Genie Nano-M2450-Polarised camera built around Sony's Pregius 5.1M polarised image sensor. The model features a monochrome quad polarisation filter, resolution of 2448 x 2048 pixels and aims to deliver an image capture of 35 frames-per-second. The product also utilises the company's TurboDrive technology with the intention of increasing frame rates by up to 50%. Additionally, the device is said to offer polarisation for both area and line scan (Piranha(TM)4 polarization)

593 Teledyne Dalsa has launched its Genie Nano-M2450-Polarised camera built around Sony's Pregius 5.1M polarised image sensor. The model features a monochrome quad polarisation filter, resolution of 2448 x 2048 pixels and aims to deliver an image capture of 35 frames-per-second. The product also utilises the company's TurboDrive technology with the intention of increasing frame rates by up to 50%.

Additionally, the device is said to offer polarisation for both area and line scan (Piranha(TM)4 polarization) cameras. Polarisation enables detectability of stress, birefringence, through-reflection and glare from surfaces like glass, plastic and metal.

Sony's image sensor, with its pixel-level polariser structure, intends to enable the detection of the amount and angle of polarised light across a scene. Four angled polarisers (90°, 45°, 135° and 0°) are positioned on each pixel, with every block of four pixels comprising a calculation unit.

    Traficon's Head of Product and Application Management Robin Collaert offers up a discussion of the likely future green requirements of traffic video systems. At the most basic levels, ITS has the potential to significantly reduce the amounts of time which vehicles spend waiting at intersections, and less time spent waiting means less in the way of vehicular emissions. All of that will hardly come as news to most laypeople, let alone transport professionals. However, the reality is that even today too many r
