Request InfoTeledyne FLIR Integrated Imaging SolutionsRICHMOND, British Columbia, Canada, Sept. 21, 2012 — Point Grey Research Inc. has expanded its line of Flea3 USB 3.0 cameras with the FL3-U3-13E4C/M-C color and monochrome models. They use the fast and sensitive EV76C560 global shutter CMOS image sensor from e2v to deliver high-quality 1.3-megapixel images at 60 fps. Global shutter mode offers distortion-free motion capture, and electronic rolling shutter mode delivers low read noise and improved dynamic range. The cameras are used in 3-D scanning, characterization of parts, and eye and gesture tracking. The CMOS image sensor makes the cameras suited for outdoor imaging applications, such...See full productRelated content from Photonics MediaPRODUCTSPhotonics.com 10/5/2021Back Illuminated CameraThe pco.edge 10 bi CLHS sCMOS back illuminated camera from PCO features high resolution and low noise at a high frame rate, making it ideal for life science applications like high content screening,...Photonics.com 4/22/2022Line Scan CameraThe Linea ML 8k line scan camera from Teledyne DALSA extends defect detection both on and under the surface of a wide variety of materials, components, and products.

Most imaging systems, including the human eye, are designed to image light over a broad range of the spectrum....Photonics HandbookAspheric Lenses: Design Considerations: This first of two articles will cover design and manufacturing options for aspheres; the second will include more detail on manufacturing and testing processes. These articles will provide the tools optics designers need to tailor their designs to the appropriate manufacturing process and to optimize the cost of component fabrication.Aspheric surfaces are powerful tools that combine the optical corrections of multiple lenses into a single element (Figure 1) and affect performance in ways that spherical optics cannot. For example,...Photonics HandbookUltraviolet Reflectance Imaging: Applications: Ultraviolet imaging has long been thought to be difficult and awkward by many photographers because of the difficulties encountered when using photographic film in the UV band. Digital ultraviolet imaging is becoming increasingly affordable and lends itself to a number of interesting applications that have been largely overlooked, and digital sensors are available that span the UV spectrum from 200 to 400 nm.Reflected-ultraviolet imaging is a rather mysterious area of the imaging field.
