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.
