Request InfoLED Array Technology (LATAB)VÄLLINGBY, Sweden, May 9, 2011 — For machine vision applications with small exposure areas, special lighting solutions are provided by LAT elektronik AB (LATAB). The application range of dark-field lighting covers the detection of edges, defects and contours. The advantages of this lighting technique are realized when the distance between the lighting and the object is very close and when standard devices are not suitable. For these applications LATAB has developed a small dark-field ringlight with an outer diameter of 25 mm that is suitable for miniature cameras with M12 lenses. Two new spotlights with a 7-mm...See full productRelated content from Photonics MediaPRODUCTSPhotonics.com 12/6/2022Camera-optimized IR LEDsThe OSLON® P1616 family of high-power IR LEDs with new camera-optimized emitters from ams OSRAM AG produces homogeneous illumination to fit square or rectangular fields of view.
