Fast and accurate scanning with Snappy 2M

KUALA LUMPUR, Aug 30 (Bernama) -- Teledyne e2v, a global innovator of imaging solutions, has launched a new CMOS image sensor called Snappy 2-megapixel (Snappy 2M), designed for barcode reading and other 2D scanning applications.

The sensor uniquely combines full HD resolution, a 2.8μm low-noise global shutter and advanced features for fast and economic decoding, all within a small optical format.

From pixel performance to integrated real-time features, every aspect of the Snappy sensor has been optimised to enable fast and accurate scanning of 1D and 2D barcodes.

This enables scanning platforms to offer enhanced productivity and throughout in logistics, sorting, retail POS and many other associated verticals.

Snappy’s features are also useful in a number of other applications including drones/UAVs, embedded imaging, IoT edge devices, intelligent surveillance cameras and augmented reality/virtual reality.

Teledyne e2v marketing manager, Gareth Powell, said: “Snappy 2M is the first in a range of innovative sensors specifically aimed at barcode reading and is designed to empower handheld, mobile or fixed readers and automatic identification cameras with better than ever performance.”

Powell said the new sensors feature a patented Fast-Exposure mode which ensures that the first image frame is correctly exposed to enable the fastest possible identification and decoding by the image processing system, even in diverse or rapidly changing light conditions.

Snappy 2M provides further cost savings by enabling a complete range of scanners/cameras at different resolutions from a single system design effort.
