Teledyne e2v’s New 8K Image Sensor Delivers Wide FOV For Logistics Applications

KUALA LUMPUR, June 13 (Bernama) -- Teledyne e2v, a Teledyne Technologies company and global innovator of imaging solutions, has launched Snappy Wide, a new 8K wide aspect ratio complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor (CMOS) image sensor designed specifically for logistics applications where larger conveyor belts are becoming increasingly common.

According to a statement, a single Snappy Wide sensor can cover this large field of view (FOV) successfully, replacing multiple sensors for a more efficient and cost-effective solution.

Teledyne e2v Business Team Leader, Arnaud Foucher said Snappy Wide offered customers the ability to adapt resolution, frames per second, performance, micro lens CRA value and pricing based on their individual needs.

“Our logistics-oriented customers have welcomed the introduction of Snappy Wide as it meets their requirements for advanced barcode scanning, and high-speed linear scanning in high throughput warehouses,” he said.

The sensors have low read-out noise, which is paramount for barcode reading, with a good multilateral trading facility (MTF) in any kind of environment, and low dark current to ensure pristine image quality, even in very low-light conditions.

Snappy Wide is available now in black and white, and colour versions, in 35 Megapixels (8,192 x 4,320), 28 Megapixels (8,182 x 3,500) and 16 Megapixels (8,192 x 2,000) resolutions.

The sensor has also been designed so there is flexibility in the horizontal and vertical resolutions. Unlike a square format CMOS image sensor, using Snappy Wide results in no wasted pixels and a better overall system cost.
