Teledyne e2v, a company within the Teledyne Technologies [NYSE: TDY] group and a global leader in imaging solutions, announced an expansion to its product line with the introduction of a compact 2-megapixel module featuring a pre-focused industrial-grade scanning lens. This MIPI interface module is versatile for various applications including scanning, embedded vision systems, and general computer vision tasks. It aims to improve productivity and increase throughput across industries such as logistics, sorting, retail point-of-sale (POS) systems, and others.

Key Features

The new 2MP optical module incorporates the Snappy 2MP CMOS sensor—a compact, state-of-the-art device with a 2.8 µm low-noise global shutter pixel. Designed specifically for scanning and embedded vision applications, this sensor includes Teledyne e2v’s patented Fast Self-Exposure™ technology, ensuring accurate exposure for every frame even in rapidly changing lighting conditions. This feature enables the fastest decoding or image processing by downstream digital systems.

The mechanical dimensions of the module are 20 mm × 20 mm × 16 mm and is equipped with a custom-designed high-quality lens featuring an extended depth of field, ideal for applications requiring longer working distances. Customization options are available upon request for alternative optical specifications.

Benefits

As a complete sensor-optics solution, this module offers customers accelerated development cycles and cost savings. Installation requires minimal effort—just a few screws suffice to mount the unit—and connects simply via an FPC cable connector to image processing systems. Additionally, limited API-layer Linux drivers can reduce software development time, allowing seamless integration with popular ISP platforms.

Industry Impact

Gareth Powell, Senior Marketing Manager at Teledyne e2v, commented: “This 2MP optical module represents a significant milestone in our family of MIPI modules. It empowers customers to shorten their integration timelines and reach market faster.”
