Machine vision continues to push boundaries every year. Cameras designed for visible imaging have evolved far beyond industrial manufacturing into diverse fields like defense surveillance, robotic surgery, intelligent traffic systems, border security, and health monitoring.

In our recent blog posts, we’ve highlighted unique applications driving innovation across industries:

Interferometric Microscopy Breakthroughs

Researchers at MIT are using advanced camera technology to study blood disorders. By precisely measuring individual cell properties, they can track changes in various conditions or treatments. This breakthrough could extend to other biological and industrial applications requiring precise signal extraction.

Cancer Detection Innovations

A proof-of-concept study at Leiden University Medical Center demonstrates how cameras help detect cancer metastases in ovarian tissue removed during fertility restoration procedures. Current research compares imaging results against histology standards, with plans to expand into broader cancer assessment tools.

Automotive Racing Applications

Porsche’s victory at the 24 Hours of Le Mans marked a milestone for automotive technology. For the first time, rugged security cameras with CMOS Global Shutter technology captured broadcast-quality views inside race cars under extreme conditions—vibrations, temperature changes, and challenging lighting situations.

Fingerprint Technology Enhancement

Scientists in Paris have developed advanced fingerprint imaging systems that peer beneath skin surfaces to create more secure identification methods. The new system uses specialized optical coherence tomography technology while maintaining simplicity and cost efficiency compared to previous approaches.
