Teledyne e2v and Teledyne DALSA, two divisions of Teledyne Technologies [NYSE: TDY] and leading entities in machine vision technology, have been honored as top innovators by the judges of the Vision Systems Design China Innovators Awards 2021. Specifically, Teledyne e2v earned a Gold Award for its 2M Multi-focus Optical Module and a Silver Award for its Hydra3D CMOS sensor. Meanwhile, Teledyne DALSA secured Gold recognition for its Linea HS 32K camera.

Addressing Modern Machine Vision Challenges

A primary hurdle in today’s machine vision sector involves balancing higher imaging resolution with reduced system costs. The Linea HS 32k TDI camera offers a groundbreaking solution to this dilemma, enabling OEMs to integrate it into current systems for enhanced performance without modifying optical components.

Technical Breakdown of the 2MP Optical Module

This module incorporates the Snappy 2MP CMOS sensor, a compact, cutting-edge device featuring a 2.8 µm low-noise global shutter pixel. Tailored for scanning and embedded vision applications, it utilizes patented Fast Self-Exposure™ technology to ensure precise exposure for all frames—facilitating rapid decoding and image processing even in dynamic lighting conditions. Measuring 20 mm x 20 mm x 16 mm, the module includes a custom high-depth-of-field lens optimized for extended working ranges.

Hydra3D CMOS Sensor: Advancements in Time-of-Flight Imaging

The Hydra3D™ ToF sensor is engineered for precise 3D detection and distance measurement. It supports advanced industrial applications such as vision-guided robotics, logistics automation, and drone systems. Its high-resolution output combined with on-chip HDR capabilities makes it well-suited for demanding environments like surveillance, intelligent transportation systems (ITS), construction monitoring, and aerial imaging.
