Canon CMOS Sensors at Photonics West

Macnica Americas supplier Canon was at Photonics West earlier this month, demonstrating its products (check out the video to see them in action), which include the  following high performance CMOS sensors targeted at industrial, medical and scientific applications: 35MMFHDXSCA – Larger than full frame, this 2.76 Megapixel low-light sensor with 19 mm pixel pitch is ideal for ultra low-light cameras used in defense, surveillance or astronomy applications. 3U5MGXS - A 5 Megapixel, 2/3-inch global shutter image sensor, that offers 120 frames per second (fps) readout at low power, targeted at machine vision applications. 120MXS - A stunning 120 megapixel ultra high-resolution sensor (approx. 60x the resolution of HD), in an APS-H format, enables high resolution imaging at 9.4 fps. Target camera applications for this sensor include inspection, aerial mapping, life sciences, digital archiving and transportation industries.

i-Chips Image Processors for ProAV

i-Chips Technology manufactures image processors for display applications including ProAV, projectors, broadcast equipment, medical imaging, industrial displays and military devices. A hot new product is the i-Chips IP00C331: a 4K60Hz up/down scaler that features 4 input ports of 4K60Hz each (or 8 input ports of up to 1080p60), and 2 output ports 4K60Hz each. This allows it to take up to four 4K60Hz sources and scale each one independently to any size and position on a composite 4K60Hz output. For more info on i-Chips products, click here and fill out the form.

Click on the video to see i-Chips scaling technology in action: it demonstrates how three previous generation scalers together can drive a 4k60Hz display with up to 8 FHD inputs. The IP00C331 can accomplish this in a single device.
