Cameras can for example visualize in:

• Food industry
• Scientific
• Medical
• Traffic surveillance

Examples Imaging Source Area Scan Cameras: 

• USB 3.0 Polarization Cameras
• GigE Polarization Cameras 

Sony‘s Polarsens™ 5.1 MP global-shutter CMOS image sensors (IMX250MZR / IMX250MYR) capture visual data which cannot be obtained using other standard monochrome and color sensors.
The sensor’s Polarsens tech-nology uses four-directional (0°, 45°, 90°, 135°) nanowire micro-polarizers placed in front of each 2×2 pixel array (calculation unit) to deliver multi-directional polarized images.
Many materials, such as:

• Plastics
• Glass
• Metals
• Liquids display intrinsic polarization properties

The sensors‘ polarization filters make use of this to visualize material stress and surface scratches as well as to reduce unwan-ted glare, improve edge detection or to enhance contrast in low-contrast materials. The supplied IC Measure software supports various methods of processing the 2×2 pixel arrays. 

USB 3.1 CMOS Cameras : 38 Series
The Imaging Source “38 series” industrial cameras are equipped with highly-sensitive, low-noise Sony Pregius global-shutter sensors which offer exceptional distortion-free image quality and color fidelity.
The 9 and 12 MP cameras support the USB3 Vision standard which ensures stability and compatibility for easy integration and flexible configuration.
Available in color and monochrome, the cameras feature a compact and robust industrial design and support applications such as intelligent traffic systems (ITS), inspection tasks and automation as well as microscopy. Additionally, their sensor sizes (2/3″ and 1/1.8″) mean they are easily combined with a variety of low-priced standard industrial lenses available from The Imaging Source.

USB 3.1 CMOS Cameras : 37 Series
“37” series industrial cameras offer Sony’s latest high-performance STARVIS and Pregius Sony CMOS sensors with the USB 3.1 (gen. 1) reversible Type-C port connection. Designed specifically to meet the demands of industrial imaging, Pregius sensors provide excellent image quality for moving machine vision applications, while the STARVIS (IMX178) is optimal in environments where fluctuations in light or lower light levels are an issue.
These USB Vision compliant cameras are well-suited to applications such as automated inspection, quality control and medical diagnostics.
