April 10, 2018 - Teledyne DALSA, a Teledyne Technologies company in machine vision technology, introduced its Genie Nano camera built around the Sony Pregius 5.1M polarized image sensor. The Genie Nano-M2450-Polarized model features a monochrome quad polarization filter, resolution of 2448 x 2048 pixels, and image capture of 35 frames-per-second.
With the addition of the Genie Nano polarized model, Teledyne offers polarization for both area and line scan (Piranha 4 polarization) cameras. Polarization enables detectability of stress, birefringence, through-reflection and glare from surfaces like glass, plastic, and metal. Sony’s image sensor, with its pixel-level polarizer structure, enables the detection of both the amount and angle of polarized light across a scene. Four different angled polarizers (90°, 45°, 135° and 0°) are positioned on each pixel, and every block of four pixels comprises a calculation unit.
Features:
- TurboDrive
- Built around the Sony IMX250MZR, monochrome polarization CMOS image sensors
- Frame measures 21.2 mm x 29 mm x 44 mm/ 47 grams
