Photonfocus HD1-D1312-80-G2 Pricing & Product Details

HD1-D1312-80-G2 Overview

What is HD1-D1312-80-G2?

The camera series HD1-D1312-80-G2 is based on the Photonfocus A1312 CMOS image sensor with LinLog® technology. This Photonfocus CMOS sensor with a full well capacity (FWC) of 90 ke^- is optimized for high dynamic range applications and a high signal-to-noise ratio (SNR). The sensor A1312 has an additional feature to widen the dynamic range. It is possible to expose the odd and even lines independently and choose also a independent sensor response curve. This enables different LinLog® settings for each field. The cameras have the GigE interface (GigEVision).

The high dynamic range camera series HD1-D1312 is a result of the demand for high dynamic range (HDR) images with linear response curve. The camera benefits from the odd/even exposure feature of the Photonfocus CMOS sensor A1312. This feature allows operating odd and even rows of the image sensor independently. In consequence the exposure time and the response curve of both fields could be setup independently. This enables a lot of applications which are well described in the literature.

The following pictures show an example for an interpolation and display with the help of a tone mapping algorithm. The exposure time of the even field was approximately 10 times longer than the exposure time of the odd field. The response curve in each field was linear.

What applications is HD1-D1312-80-G2 product best for?

Industrial Automation

Fully automated production, self-learning machines and robots: Many Industry 4.0 applications rely on machine vision and the depth of detail in image data. High-precision embedded vision systems are used in process and quality control, as well as for measuring object and surface characteristics. Photonfocus develops and produces both sensors for integration into existing systems and ready-to-use solutions with onboard decision-making.

Agriculture
Increasingly, the digitalized agriculture and forestry industry relies on visual systems. For example, the use of drones with hyperspectral cameras enables the detection of parasite infestation, plant diseases, or the assessment of the degree of maturity of the crop. Our sensors do what the human eye cannot see and assist the agriculture industry on the way to more efficient solutions that are future-proof.

Automotive
Numerous applications in the automotive industry rely on fully automatic inspection systems for checking production processes, object properties and quality. High-precision embedded vision systems perform 2D and 3D image acquisition simultaneously, thereby ensuring that industrial robots and production plants are as profitable and productive as possible.

Material Processing
Fully automated sorting processes save the use of humans for monotonous and tedious activities. Photonfocus sensors are highly reliable when it comes to deciding which foods can be resold or which are spoiled, or separating waste into glass, plastic, metal or other materials.

Traffic & Transport
Embedded vision applications count and identify vehicles in road traffic and thus influence traffic. In rail applications, precise measuring technology with machine vision inspects tracks and train components, detecting wear and defects. At the same time, intelligent onboard solutions give train drivers and maintenance staff direct feedback regarding the condition of the route, thereby ensuring safety and keeping downtimes to a minimum.
