Spectral Response: Monochrome vs Colour Sensors
Those who have dealt with machine vision sensors may well have noticed that mono cameras have much better response in the near infra-red (NIR) range. The reasons for this are...

Lighting a Narrow Area for a Linescan Application
The setup which we assembled in our lab, and eventually at our customer’s site, used conveyors which had rollers with a diameter of approximately 15cm, and the belts had an...

Global Shutter vs Rolling Shutter
CMOS sensors - though immune to the blooming effects seen by CCD sensors - can be prone to other artefacts such as skew, wobble and smear. This is not always...
