Sensors
Emerald 8M9 Teledyne e2v has announced that samples and demo kits are now available for Emerald 8M9, the newest member of the Emerald CMOS image sensor family, which is dedicated to machine vision and intelligent traffic system (ITS) applications. Mass production is planned for Q1 2019. Emerald 8M9 features a 2.8µm low-noise global shutter pixel and differentiates from other CMOS image sensors by providing a high 8.9-megapixel resolution within a compact 2/3-inch optical format. The sensor is available in two speed grades with no restriction on features: a standard speed model – 47fps at 10 bits – and a high-speed model – 107fps at 10 bits – to address diverse performance requirements. The new sensor has a low readout noise , which combined with 65 per cent
of 2.8e-
quantum efficiency, provides accurate inspection and surveillance, even in low-light conditions. Emerald 8M9 also benefits from application-specific features, including the ability to independently configure the exposure time and position of regions of interest for several areas in the same scene. Combined with its high resolution, this feature enables simultaneous automatic number plate recognition over several lanes of traffic, or simultaneous verification tasks, using a single sensor. The Emerald 8M9’s real-time high dynamic range mode can capture fast-moving vehicles from daylight to night-time with minimum artefacts and blur effects.

Badger-C and Badger-T Andanta now offers an uncooled InGaAs-sensor with 640 x 512 pixel resolution that can be operated at room temperature.
The sensor comes with a reduced pixel pitch of 15µm – formerly 25µm – which reduces the overall active sensor area to 9.6 x 7.68mm, identical to the low resolution, uncooled sensor FPA320x256-C. This will ease sensor integration for all existing users of FPA320x256-C. Using an InGaAs planar technology with 53 per cent indium content, a spectral response of 0.9µm to 1.7µm with a quantum efficiency over 70 per cent is achieved with the new sensor. The use of eight outputs with 18MHz pixel rate provides a readout rate of 300fps at full image and 30,000fps with the smallest sub-window of
Cabling
Cabling options made simple Stemmer Imaging has developed an online cabling configuration tool to ensure users choose the proper selection of cables for their imaging application. This simple-to-use tool offers selection between all of the various cable parameters, including special requirements, such as mechanical and thermal properties, or resistance to chemical exposure. The tool allows the user to first choose the interface required and then specify the connector, cable type, cable length and further optional cable requirements. Important factors that determine the correct cable performance include: cable flexibility, transmission distance, connector integrity and material, the operating

32 x 4 pixels. The new FPA640x512_P15-C sensor uses a simple, hermetic 64-pin ceramic LCC package with dimensions of 18 x 18 x 2mm and a sensor weight of 1.7g, enabling a very compact camera design. The power consumption is capped at 200mW, as there is no cooler to drive. The same InGaAs matrix sensor chip is now
also available in a Kovar package with a one-stage thermoelectric cooler. The new cooled FPA640x512_P15-TE1 sensor uses a high-quality 28-pin, hermetic metal shrink dual inline package (SDIP) with a pin pitch of 1.78mm, a size of 36.1 x 25.4 x 7.3mm – without pins – and a sensor weight of 17g, which also enables a compact and lightweight camera design.

environment and cable routing. The tool then returns an overview of suitable cables that match the configuration. Although there is a wide range of off-the-shelf cables available, if none of them match the user requirements, an online cable request form is provided. This allows users to contact the experts at Stemmer Imaging, to discuss the production of a bespoke cable.
