German imaging specialist 8141 Framos offers the expanded 576 Sony Pregius 8.9MP and 12.3MP high resolution sensors, the IMX253/255, IMX304/305 and IMX267, characterised by a pixel size of 3.45μm.

The 1.1-inch IMX253 with 12MP achieves 65 frames per second at a pixel depth of 10bit and supports external trigger control, up to 64 independent ROIs (regions of interest). Framos says it is suitable for industrial machine vision applications. The IMX255 8.9MP is a one-inch sensor and is 4K2K capable.

The IMX304 low-speed versions with 12MP with a sensor size of 1.1-inch and 23fps, and the IMX267 with 8.9MP with a1-inch sensor and 32fps are mainly suitable for ITS applications with a large field of vision or for slower MV applications. The IMX305, a one-inch colour sensor with 8.9MP and 64fps, is particularly suitable for 4K2K GS video applications.

According to Framos, all new Sony sensors are very low noise, and offer a high dynamic range and high quantum efficiency of more than 65 per cent.

    Transportation applications move to machine vision’s mainstream
    The adaptation of machine vision to transport applications continues apace. That the machine vision industry is taking traffic installations seriously is evident by the amount of hardware and software products tailor-made for ITS applications that are now available on the market. A good example comes from US-based Gridsmart Technologies which has developed a single wire fisheye camera that provides a horizon to horizon view for use at intersections. Not only does the single camera replace four or more in a

    IR’s invisible benefit for traffic surveillance and enforcement
    Advances in vision technology are enhancing traffic surveillance and enforcement applications. Variable lighting conditions have long been a stumbling block for vision technology applications in the transport sector. With applications such as ANPR, the read-rate may vary between daylight and night and can be adversely affected by glare and low sun. Madrid, Spain-based Lector Vision had these considerations in mind when designing its Traffic Eye ANPR system, which combines off-the-shelf and custom hardware

    Sony Europe’s Image Sensing Solutions (ISS) says its XCL-SG1240 series of Camera Link V2.0 modules utilise a 1.1-type global shutter CMOS sensor to deliver 12 MP images at 20 fps. These cameras are suited to sectors which require exceptional detail including low (0.5 lx) or changing lighting conditions, the company adds. The module was developed by Sony ISS engineers who worked with the Sony 1.1-type Pregius GS CMOS sensor with the intention of developing a solution which extracts better image qualit
