AT Automation Technology has integrated MultiPeak, a new feature in the Cx4090HS 3D sensor module, which for the first time enables interference-free recording of 3D profile data via laser triangulation. Thanks to MultiPeak, highly reflective materials such as metal, plastic or glass can be scanned without interfering reflections. If multiple reflections of the laser exist on the inspection surface, the feature helps to distinguish them and to output up to four profiles with peak data separately. In this way, multiple laser reflections can be checked for plausibility on the application side and, if necessary, eliminated from the evaluation data as disturbance variables.
247MP CMOS by Sony
Sony recently released a 247MP rolling shutter CMOS image sensor available in monochrome (IMX811-AAMR) and color (IMX811-AAQR) variants which have a 64.84mm diagonal, a square pixel array, as well as 5.3fps.
