A camera inherits a lot of its characteristics from the sensor that is being used. This is a collection of our blogs that discuss the sensor technology and characteristics.
The manufacturing of an Adimec industrial camera is not as simple as using fasteners, connectors, and adhesives to integrate all electrical and mechanical components. As components become smaller with reduced tolerances, industrial camera manufacturers face new challenges in production. There are specific operations and measures taken through each stage of the process used to ensure…
Moving from CCD to CMOS Cameras CCD Sensors go Obsolete In the world of cameras, the favored image sensor type is now evolving. Two of the most popular visible sensor technologies found in the industry are CMOS (complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor) and CCD (charge-coupled device). In the past, CCD offered a higher image quality with better light…
The EMVA1288 is a great standard to start talking about applications instead of about definitions of important high-performance industrial camera parameters. In this blog we want to talk about the definitions in the standard. For our previous discussions on the EMVA1288 standard, please click here. Not everyone uses the EMVA1288 standard to report on camera parameters,…
How does IR light influence camera color reproduction? In many outdoor and global security applications it is desired to get good image performance of a camera in both daylight and at night. In such cases the camera needs to be IR sensitive to perform better at night or needs to be sensitive to a certain…
Adimec is introducing a new 50-megapixel camera the S-50A30 based on the CMOSIS CMV50000. The new camera provides more than just higher resolution. This CMOS camera, provides inspection accuracy increases, the highest inspection throughput at 50 Mpx, and the next step in image quality. This is a three-part series that illustrates why to choose a…

Characterizing the image sensor/deciding on the image sensor is an important first step in camera selection for a machine vision application, but it is not a simple task. There are some courses such as the one highlighted below that can offer excellent training and support. You can also contact Adimec for information as we have…
In February 2011, we provided an analysis on the use of CCD versus CMOS image sensors in machine vision.
For intelligent traffic systems, VGA resolution CCD-based cameras have traditionally been the accepted technology, but with the quality of CMOS image sensors continuously improving, CMOS-based cameras are now a viable option for demanding license plate recognition applications. The latest system requirements are for higher resolution (HDTV) and frame rates of 30 to 60 frames per…
Very often high full well capacity and high dynamic range is mentioned in one sentence. However actually they are not per definition the same. For example at Adimec we do sell cameras with high full well capacity however if you are looking for a high dynamic range this might not be the camera of your…
