0.61µm pixel 4K image sensor for mobile cameras
OmniVision Technologies has announced the OV60A, a 0.61 micron (µm) pixel high resolution CMOS image sensor that will enhance the capabilities of next-generation mobile phone cameras. The OV60A offers 60 megapixel (MP) resolution with the smallest pixel size in its class at .61µm. The OV60A can fit into a 1/2.8 inch optical format in either 3:4 or 16:9 aspect ratio configurations.
Shaping the growth of the ultrasonic sensors market
Rising implementation of ultrasonic sensors across a plethora of industrial applications such as robot sensing, counting substances in conveyor belts, box sorting schemes, and liquid level control, among others, will outline the growth of the industry. The sensors are also gaining immense traction from AMRs (Autonomous Mobile Robots) to determine vehicle distance from the object and for detecting obstacles.
Small full HD image sensor for thin bezel notebooks
OmniVision Technologies has announced in advance of COMPUTEX Virtual , a 1/7-inch, two megapixel image sensor, the OV02C, for full high definition (HD) video performance in thin bezel premium notebooks, tablets and IoT devices.
Graphene hall sensor optimised for cryogenic applications
Paragraf has introduced the GHS-C Graphene Hall Sensor (GHS), providing the industry’s only viable approach to measuring magnetic field strengths of 7 Tesla (T) and above, at temperature extremes below 3 Kelvin (K).
Custom touch technology enables a fun new facet to socialising
The fast-moving hospitality industry is always looking for novel ways to differentiate their brands while increasing ROI and loyalty based on enhanced customer experiences. Raising the standard of innovation, Litemax’s latest interactive circular 33” display is an eye-catching resized LCD suitable for use in bar tables installed in cafes and restaurants.
Flow controller covers multiple ranges
The SFC5500 mass flow controller series from Sensirion is based on the microthermal measurement principle and uses Sensirion’s CMOSens MEMS technology.
Smart city trial project in Rome using intelligent vision
Sony Europe has announced its IMX500 image sensors with AI processing functionality are at the core of three smart city trials being run by Envision in the municipality of Rome. These are intended to cut the city’s transport-related pollution and accidents at pedestrian crossings.
CO2 sensor for optimised ventilation in electric buses
Thermo King has introduced a new CO2 sensor to the Athenia MkII Electric heat pump range for hybrid and electric buses. The new sensor optimises the fresh air ventilation rate and increases the air flow by actively monitoring and controlling the CO2 levels inside the bus.
Position sensor announced with new PCB-less packages
Melexis has introduced the MLX90377 single- and dual-die (fully redundant) Triaxis position sensor for automotive and industrial applications together with a new PCB-less package for position sensors.
Motion tracking with modules for harsh environments
Xsens has announced two new products in its MTi 600-series, extending the customer’s choice of rugged products with and without an integrated satellite positioning receiver. Xsens is adding a new GNSS/Inertial Navigation System (INS) module, the MTi-670G, and a rugged Attitude and Heading Reference System (AHRS), the MTi-630R to the MTi 600-series.
