A collection of our blogs about cameras and related topics for the Machine Vision market.
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…
multi-exposure function Today’s display modules offer high resolution, vast color representation and refresh rates that present motion better than ever before. We find these types of displays in our tablets, mobile phones, and other personal devices both large and small. As the capabilities of display modules increase, the complexity of defects increases as well. Cameras…
Achieving Uniformity Inspection of OLED Displays OLED (organic light-emitting diode) and Micro LED displays are modern display technologies we see in our mobile phones, televisions, and other portable computing systems. OLEDs offer a greater contrast ratio and deeper black level because OLEDs emit their own light. The absence of a backlight allows blacks to be…
As manufacturers of high-end semiconductors and display modules are striving to increase product reliability as well as reduce quality control errors, there is a consistent need for increased inspection accuracy. The Adimec S-25A30 and S-25A70 cameras are successful products that offer the semiconductor inspection and metrology market high-resolution, global shutter, high image quality cameras at…
SAPPHIRE S-50A30 and CoaXPress Bring Faster Speeds and Higher Resolution to Machine Vision The Sapphire S-50A30 camera, with the CMV50000 sensor, has moved into full production after initial success in several display inspection systems. After in-depth research and development, field testing, and product refinement the S-50A30 has evolved into a product design equipped to deliver…
With the impending release of the CoaXPress (CXP) 2.0 standard, a lot of people are buying CXP 2.0 Frame grabbers even though there are not a lot of CXP 2.0 cameras yet. It makes sense to buy the new technology since it is also backward compatible. A minor problem is that you need a hybrid…
Today a new blog in the Bootstrap CoaXPress features blog series. This time we will take a closer look at the ConnectionConfig and the related ConnectionConfigDefault feature. ConnectionConfig is one of the most used bootstrap features by the system engineer. This feature can be used to set the number of connections you would like to use…
We know many of you are as passionate about machine vision technology as we are. As you may already know Vision 2018 in Stuttgart starts next Tuesday. We look forward to experiencing all of the latest machine vision technologies and trends and we hope to see you there as well! This year our vision engineers…
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,…
In our last blog we discussed the origins of latency and jitter in a triggering scheme for a CoaXPress camera. In this blog we will continue by zooming in on the actual magnitude of the latency and jitter. What is the latency and jitter related to the CoaXPress interface? To answer this question let us…
