The latest USB 3.0 industrial cameras from 7178 IDS feature Sony’s second-generation 5 megapixel (2456 x 2054) Pregius CMOS sensors. The 2/3-inch IMX250 and IMX264 sensors’ 3.45µm pixel structure is said to deliver excellent quality and extremely low-noise images even under low-light conditions. In combination with the IDS Software Suite, additional features, including triggered linescan mode, multi AOI and long exposure up to 30 seconds will be available.

According to IDS, the cameras are suitable for the ITS market as well as classical machine vision applications measuring only 29 x 29 x 29mm and have an integrated image memory, magnesium housing and screw-on Micro USB 3.0 and Hirose connectors.

    Sony has launched a new 1/1.7-type stacked Cmos image sensor with a 7.42 (effective) megapixel RCCC filter for forward sensing cameras in advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS). The IMX324 aims to provide high definition imaging of signs approximately 160m ahead of the camera. In pixel binning mode the low light sensitivity is increased to 2,666 mV, to capture images in conditions down to 0.1 lux. In mixed lighting scenes (such as headlights and streetlights) it alternately captures dark sections at
