Teledyne 8154 e2v has launched its Emerald 5M CMOS image sensor which it says provides higher resolution images of objects in motion with no distortion.


The solution is expected to be suitable for machine vision, automated optical inspection and factory automation applications.

Emerald 5M features a global shutter and MIPI CSI-2 interface which allows it to utilise image signal processors available for mobile applications.

According to Teledyne e2v, the sensor comes with digital functionalities such as subsampling, auto exposure at first frame, single frame high-dynamic range and on-chip statistics to help reduce processor load.

    A new generation of video compression can lower transmission costs of data and make streaming from mobile and body-worn cameras a reality, as Colin Sowman discovers. Bandwidth limitations have long been the bottleneck restricting the expanded use of video streaming for ITS, monitoring and surveillance purposes. Recent years have seen this countered to some degree by the introduction of ‘edge processing’ whereby ANPR, incident detection and other image processing is moved into (or close to) the camera, so
