8526 Baumer’s new industrial camera series uses the latest generation of CMOS global shutter sensors for maximum sensitivity at short exposure time, on a high dynamic range and resolutions up to 25MP.

The cameras are available in monochrome and colour and with ultra-high sensitivity within the NIR range.

The CX series cameras, with Sony Pregius sensors and GigE or USB 3.0 interface are suitable for automatic number plate recognition (ANPR) applications. Offering low noise and featuring a dynamic range of more than 70dB, the cameras supply high-contrast and sharp images for maximum image evaluation stability even in extreme brightness. Horizontal resolutions from 1920 to 4096 pixels enable a single camera to monitor several lanes, depending on the application and on-site requirements. The cameras feature low power consumption and a wide temperature range.

The LX series cameras offer up to 25MP, Dual GigE interface and burst mode for applications where image acquisition requires maximum speed and high resolution in parallel. Baumer GAPI software development kit supporting ARM platforms ensures convenient and cost-efficient camera integration in embedded applications.

    Sony’s Stephane Clauss looks at the imaging requirements in tunnels. In the event of a fire inside a tunnel, the dispersion of gases and heat is prevented, creating extreme temperatures that have led to many deaths. Following tragic incidents including Mont Blanc, European legislation requires longer tunnels to be fitted with incident and smoke detection systems.

    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

    January 25, 2012
    For some, machine vision is the coming technology. For others, it’s already here. Although it remains a relative newcomer to the ITS sector, its effects look set to be profound and far-reaching. Encapsulating in just a few short words the distinguishing features of complex technologies and their operating concepts can sometimes be difficult. Often, it is the most subtle of nuances which are both the most important and yet also the most easily lost. Happily, in the case of machine vision this isn’t the case:
