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.

    Perceptions of machine vision being an expensive solution are being challenged by developments in both core technologies and ancillaries. Here, Jason Barnes and David Crawford look at the latest developments in the sector. A notable aspect of machine vision is the flexibility it offers in terms of how and how much data is passed around a network. With smart cameras, processing capabilities at the front end mean that only that which is valid need be communicated back to a central processor of any descripti

  • Theia develops innovative distortion-free ultra-wide-angle lenses
    October 26, 2022
    Today’s high-resolution cameras have many advantages if they have the right lens for the job. When that includes covering large areas or reducing cost by installing fewer cameras, you need a wide-angle lens. Fisheye style lenses with barrel distortion are routinely used to cover an ultra-wide field of view; however, they create a curved and distorted image which causes significant loss of resolution at the image edges. This presents a variety of issues for ITS applications such as difficulty in identification or recognition of objects and details.
