7311 Lumenera is here at the ITS America Annual Meeting to present high performance cameras with excellent image quality, amazing low-light performance, high dynamic range and high resolution needed for transportation applications. With thousands of cameras deployed worldwide, Lumenera’s says its equipment is ideal for tolling, red light/speed enforcement and automated parking. Off-the-shelf and custom imaging solutions with USB 3.0, USB 2.0 and GigE options are offered.

On display is Lumenera’s yet-to-be-released Lt16059H camera which is equipped with a 16 MP ON Semiconductor (Truesense) KAI-16070 CCD image sensor with a 7.4 μm pixel size that can achieve a frame rate of 11 fps at full resolution.

This high-performance USB 3.0 camera is optimal for many transportation applications and its global electronic shutter captures high-quality, high-speed images with virtually zero image blur. Additionally, Lumenera points out that the unit’s award-winning “Dual- Gain High Dynamic Range” (HDR) implementation is a rare feature that outputs the same high-resolution frame processed through two different gain amplifiers. The Lt16059H can be customised to suit OEM designs. “The Lt16059H camera was designed with ITS specifically in mind,” says Eric Ramsden, Lumenera product manager.

“Our design using the KAI- 16070 sensor produces the best results one can expect out of a camera designed with this sensor. Lumenera excels at designing robust cameras that provide speed, low noise, excellent tap matching and reliable USB 3.0 which are all critical elements for ITS deployments.

The recent announcement of our industry-leading four-year warranty for all of our cameras gives our customers the confidence that our solution is designed to last.”

    Point Grey has introduced another innovation in imaging with the release of its new Flea3 USB 3.0 camera series. Measuring just 29 x 29 x 30mm, the FL3-U3 is claimed to be the smallest USB 3.0 camera in the world and is designed specifically for the demanding requirements of machine and computer vision applications. The first available models are based on monochrome and colour versions of the Sony IMX036, a high-quality CMOS sensor capable of generating 3.2 megapixel images at 60 FPS. "USB 3.0 is rapidly ga

On the 24th March 1999, a Belgian truck transporting flour and margarine through the 11.6km Mont Blanc tunnel caught alight when a cigarette stub entered the engine induction snorkel, lighting the paper air filter. The fire left over 30 dead and many more injured. At the time, the Mont Blanc tunnel disaster was the world’s worst tunnel fire.

    What is said to be the first 30x zoom camera module with a global shutter sensor is being displayed on Tamron Europe’s stand. Global shutters remove (or minimise) the blur associated with rolling shutters capturing fast-moving objects such as vehicles (as also illustrated on Tamron’s stand). Designated the MP2030M-GS, the module uses a 32mm (1.125inch) 3.2 megapixel Sony global shutter sensor with a digital (LVDS) output or a composite output in the CVBS format. The remotely activated zoom lens ranges in
