Industries suffer with pandemic caused restrictions
EMVA starts Survey on COVID-19 Impact

The COVID-19 pandemic will without doubt leave its mark in the wider economy and subsequently also the machine vision industry. It is the intention of the EMVA to maximize the dialog with its members and all other industry players to provide best possible assistance and information in this difficult situation.
Just yesterday the EMVA has started the survey ‘COVID-19 Impacts on the Machine Vision Industry‘ which is part of the efforts aiming to analyze the effects of the Corona pandemic on the machine vision industry and elaborate which additional useful tools an association such as the EMVA could provide to help the industry.

Please spent 5-10 minutes and participate anonymously at SURVEY.

Case Study

XIMEA – Cinematography camera with swappable sensors

Image

With the increasing competition in the cinema camera market, the focus of Octopus is to fill the gaps in specialist requirements. For instance, native monochrome sensor imaging and a fully open SDK to extend and embed custom behavior in the camera.

Black and white cinematography is a powerful medium which is gaining a resurgence as of late.
The native monochrome sensors provide resolving power and sensitivity noticeably beyond their colour counterparts.
Fine detail in shots is preserved with no moiré or artifacts artefacts at all – even when pixel peeping. Read more ›

DALSA
Faster GigE vision interface cameras engineered for high-resolution image capture

Image Teledyne DALSA announced its new GenieTM Nano 5GigE M/C8100, M/C5400 and M/C4500, based on the ON Semiconductor® 45M, 30M and 20M monochrome and color sensors. The new Genie Nano 5G series delivers affordable, easy-to-use, GigE Vision interface cameras specifically engineered for industrial imaging applications requiring high speed data capture and transfers. These new camera models take advantage of the new XGS sensor family which replaces the discontinued ON Semiconductor high resolution KAI CCD sensors.

“The new ON Semi XGS 45M global shutter CMOS image sensor provides excellent performance and image quality for high-end optical inspection,” said Manny Romero, Senior Product Manager at Teledyne DALSA. Read more ›


DALSA
Newest thermal cameras ideal for non-contact fever screening

Image Teledyne DALSA introduced its latest family of LWIR cameras, the CalibirTM GXM series. Using Teledyne DALSA’s own VGA 17um microbolometer technology, Calibir GXM cameras offer exceptional infrared imaging performance, with great sensitivity, outstanding dynamic range for wide temperature coverage, and factory-calibrated radiometric performance. Calibir delivers accurate, repeatable results for critical applications like detecting elevated skin temperature in fever screening.

“As a key component in a well-designed thermal imaging system, the new GXM640 can aid in the detection of elevated skin temperature and fever screening. Read more ›


E2V
Expanding the Emerald image sensor family with new compact global shutter 3.2MP sensor

Image Teledyne E2V announced its new Emerald 3.2 Megapixel CMOS image sensor, specially designed to tackle the challenges of emerging applications such as security, drones and embedded vision, as well as traditional machine vision.

The sensor has been designed in an ultra-compact light package format with low power to address the challenge of optimizing SWaP-C (Size, Weight, Power and Cost). Read more ›


FRAMOS
New high-resolution Intel RealSense LiDAR depth camera in FRAMOS portfolio expands 3D vision application range

Image FRAMOS sees good opportunities for LiDAR-based hi-res depth cameras to expand the applications of 3D vision technologies and replace stereo depth cameras in some areas. With exceptional resolution and accuracy, the new Intel RealSense LiDAR depth camera L515 achieves much better edge fidelity than stereo cameras, even at a maximum distance of 9 metres. As a result, it is superior to 3D stereo vision systems in some applications. It will be of particular interest to customers looking for hi-res 3D scanning solutions.

The L515 depth camera’s large range, edge fidelity, and compact size are advantageous in the logistics industry. Read more ›
