518 Allied Vision Technologies has expanded its compact Prosilica GT digital camera range to include five new high-resolution models from 9.2 to 29 megapixels.

Designed for imaging in extreme tem­peratures from –20 to +65 degrees centi­grade and fluctuating lighting conditions, Prosilica GT cameras feature precise and DC auto iris, as well as Power over Ethernet (PoE) and the latest CCD sensor technology, making them suited to a wide range of appli­cations including intelligent transportation systems (ITS) and traffic imaging, machine vision, industrial inspection, security, surveil­lance and military uses.

The Prosilica GT4100 features a CMV12000 global shutter CMOS sensor from CMOSIS that offers high sensitivity, fast frame rates and high dynamic range with 12.6 megapixel resolution.

The Prosilica GT4905 and Pros­ilica GT4907 both feature a 16 mega-pixel Truesense Imaging CCD sensor. The GT4905 comes with the KAI-16050 CCD sensor in APS-H optical (32.36mm) diago­nal format with a frame rate of 7.5fps. The GT4907’s KAI-16070 35mm sensor is based on a new 7.4 micron interline trans­fer CCD platform that provides increased smear rejection and linear dynamic range.

The 29 megapixel Prosilica GT6600 features the Truesense Imaging KAI-29050 CCD device, which, supported by the 5.5 µm pixel architecture from the KAI sensor family, provides high sensitivity and low noise performance. The Prosilica GT6600 camera outputs 6576 x 4384 pixels at 4fps. All three Truesense sensors feature a vertical overflow drain structure designed to suppress image blooming and en­able electronics shuttering for precise exposure control. They are equipped with an F-mount as standard or an optional M58 mount and are compat­ible with a wide range of high-quality commercial and industrial lenses.

    November 5, 2018
    Kowa is showcasing its lens series for 12MP cameras with a 1.1" chip size and a pixel size of 3.45µm at Vision 2018 this week in Stuttgart, Germany. The new FC series is optimized to fit the micro lenses of the new Sony sensors IMX253 and IMX304, so that unwanted shading on the sensor is prevented. Kowa’s lenses are also wide-band coated which effectively decreases glare and reflection and produces a high transmission from the visible to the NIR wavelength.
