Sony releases USB3 industrial vision module

Sony Europe Imaging Sensing Solutions has launched its industrial vision global shutter complementary metal oxide semiconductor (GS CMOS) module using the USB3.0 transmission standard. Called XCU-CG160, the solution has a 1.6MP resolution and is said to transmit data at 100 frames per second. XCU-CG160 intends to create a migration path from charge-coupled device to GS CMOS without system upgrades or a changed architecture. The device also includes key image-processing features such as gain and defect pixel
