Teledyne 8154 e2v has launched its Emerald 5M CMOS image sensor which it says provides higher resolution images of objects in motion with no distortion.

The solution is expected to be suitable for machine vision, automated optical inspection and factory automation applications.

Emerald 5M features a global shutter and MIPI CSI-2 interface which allows it to utilise image signal processors available for mobile applications.

According to Teledyne e2v, the sensor comes with digital functionalities such as subsampling, auto exposure at first frame, single frame high-dynamic range and on-chip statistics to help reduce processor load.

Emerald 5M includes a 5° chief ray angle compensation – the chief ray angle is the angle between the optical axis and each line of the chief rays.

The product is available in a ruggedised ceramic land grid array package or as a miniaturised organic fan-out package which is less than 2mm thick.

    To complement its existing WIM offering, IRD has introduced a system to detect under-inflated and flat tyres at highway speeds. Tyre inflation pressure has both safety and economic impacts for road users and none more so than with commercial vehicles. An underinflated tyre has decreased directional control, increased risk of catastrophic failure, and negatively impacts tyre life and fuel economy. In June 2014 the USDOT published Large Truck and Bus Crash Facts 2012 in which the Federal Motor Carrier Safety
