SVS-Vistek has introduced the shr661, a CMOS camera that addresses this challenge. This innovative device boasts an impressive resolution of 127 megapixels while maintaining a global shutter. The shr661 is based on Sony’s IMX661 sensor from its Pregius series, featuring a pixel size of 3.45 µm and a resolution of 13,392 x 9,528 pixels. The advanced backlight technology enhances light sensitivity and noise performance, enabling exceptional image quality capable of capturing even the finest details with precision.

Interface Options Expanded

The shr661 supports high-speed data transmission through modern interfaces. With its 10GigE interface, it achieves up to 8.2 full frames per second (fps). For even greater performance, CoaXPress-12 (using four connections) enables speeds of up to 20.3 fps. These capabilities significantly expand the range of applications for which the shr661 can be utilized.

Helpful Properties for Practice

Beyond its remarkable combination of resolution, global shutter functionality, and high-speed data transmission, the shr661 includes several practical features optimized for real-world use. Flat field correction and defect pixel compensation are two such tools that help optimize image quality. Users can also mitigate issues caused by poor lighting or lens shading within certain limits.

The camera offers an I/O framework with multiple inputs and four power-out outputs, supporting precise triggering as well as sequencers and logical operators. LED lighting can be directly controlled via integrated strobe controllers and sequencers. Since the shr661 is GenICam/GenTL compatible, it integrates seamlessly into major machine vision software packages.

Large Sensor, Small Housing

Despite its large size, the shr661 features an extremely compact design that facilitates mechanical integration into industrial applications. The camera’s housing allows for a wide selection of lenses to suit various tasks. SVS-Vistek provides expert guidance on lens selection and conducts thorough testing when necessary to ensure optimal imaging.

To maintain high image quality during operation, the shr661 employs proven SHR temperature management. This system ensures even temperature distribution across the large sensor area, maintaining excellent homogeneity in captured images despite a wide operating temperature range.

The complex calibration of the stitched sensor remains consistent within this broad temperature spectrum.
