Canon: CMOS sensor with global shutter: shooting of visible light and near infrared light

Canon:

Released “3U5MGXSBAI”, a 2 / 3-type CMOS sensor with a global shutter function.

Global shutter function:

Capable of simultaneous imaging in the visible and near infrared regions
Compatible with high-speed moving subjects
Contributes to miniaturization of industrial imaging systems and inspection equipment.

Color images and near-infrared images can be obtained with a single imaging.

In other words, there is no need to build a large-scale system using multiple cameras.

Application fields:

Foreign matter inspection at food factories,
Vehicle information monitoring,
Precision agriculture,
Use in the biomedical field is expected.
