SVS-Vistek is proud to announce the launch of its EXO540 and EXO541 camera models, featuring Sony’s latest fourth-generation Pregius sensors. These innovative cameras combine high-resolution imaging with a compact design, thanks to their small pixel size (2.74 µm x 2.74 µm) and exceptional speed. The new generation of sensors boasts a global shutter, which eliminates motion blur, making them ideal for demanding industrial applications.

Enhanced Sensitivity and Performance

Sony’s “Illuminated Backlight” technology significantly improves the light sensitivity of these tiny pixels, resulting in higher quantum efficiency. This allows users to achieve superior image quality even with smaller lenses—offering cost savings without compromising performance. The high pixel density further enables resolutions up to 20.3 megapixels while maintaining a compact form factor.

Superior Image Reproduction

The EXO series features a milled unibody design, which plays a crucial role in the camera’s thermal management system. This advanced approach ensures consistent image quality and homogeneity—delivering approximately 70 dB of dynamic range even under demanding conditions. The cameras are rated for operation up to an ambient temperature of 65°C, making them suitable for a wide range of industrial environments.

Advanced Software Features

The EXO series includes robust software capabilities tailored for industrial use cases. Features such as adjustable regions of interest (ROI), look-up tables, offset adjustments, and binning functions provide flexibility in image processing. Additionally, the cameras feature an extremely precise sequencer with advanced logic functionality to handle complex workflows seamlessly.

Robust Hardware Design

On the hardware front, the EXO series delivers impressive specifications. The input ports are directly accessible and galvanically isolated for reliable performance, while a 4-channel power output can deliver up to 3A per channel. This makes them ideal for driving LED strobe lights—where the camera itself can assume the role of a controller. All functionalities are managed via GenICam-compliant protocols or through the camera’s proprietary GenTL driver.

High-Speed Alternatives

For applications requiring even greater speed, the FXO series offers an alternative solution with CoaXPress-12 or 10GigE interfaces (without flow control). These options eliminate potential bottlenecks associated with USB3 or GigE Vision in high-throughput scenarios.

Conclusion

The introduction of Sony’s fourth-generation Pregius sensors into the EXO and FXO series marks a significant advancement in industrial imaging technology. SVS-Vistek continues to push the boundaries by combining cutting-edge sensor technology with robust hardware and software features, ensuring reliable performance across diverse applications worldwide.
