GRENOBLE, France, June 13 (Bernama-GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Teledyne e2v, a Teledyne Technologies [NYSE: TDY] company and global innovator of imaging solutions, announces Snappy Wide, a new 8K wide aspect ratio CMOS image sensor designed specifically for logistics applications where larger conveyor belts are becoming increasingly common. A single Snappy Wide sensor can cover this large field of view successfully, replacing multiple sensors for a more efficient and cost-effective solution.
Snappy Wide has a small 2.5 µm global shutter pixel, designed with Teledyne e2v’s latest generation light pipe technology, which provides 67 dB dynamic range in 10-bit and 12-bit ADC mode. The sensors have low read-out noise, which is paramount for barcode reading, with a good MTF in any kind of environment, and low dark current to ensure pristine image quality, even in very low-light conditions. With a maximum resolution of 8K (8,192) x 4k (4,320) pixels (i.e. 17/9 aspect ratio) Snappy Wide provides innovative sensor solutions for the logistics market and other industrial applications, such as smart factories.
