SONY's imaging division is now offering further additions to its FCB camera offering. The new EV9500 series includes three different models, each based on a 4.17m pixel 1/1.8 STARVISTM CMOS image sensor. The EV9500H provides HDMI output, the EV9500M and EV9500L provide MIPI and LVDS ports, respectively. All three camera blocks offer 30x enhanced optical zoom and 12x digital zoom - no image deterioration is encountered when using these features.
Integrated into a family of camera modules, the STARVIS CMOS sensor has an anti-reflective coating that mitigated the ghost effect and ensured that the image was captured correctly (without the risk of important information being missed). Its hyperspectral sensitivity performance at near-infrared/infrared frequencies indicates that these cameras are highly optimized for surveillance deployment.
The special unit structure and circuit technology used in the series design makes the sensitivity much higher than the traditional camera, and the image signal-to-noise ratio (S/N) is 50dB. This means the units are particularly suited for use in low-light environments. They also provide next-generation image stabilization technology that enhances blur suppression when exposed to heavy vibration forces. The noise reduction (NR) function removes both random and non-random noise from the obtained image. At the same time, the low focal plane distortion capability is resistant to image distortion, which usually occurs when processing fast-moving objects.
Their key applications include safety systems, shipborne imaging equipment, unmanned aerial vehicles, automotive imaging systems, autonomous guided vehicles and industrial monitoring infrastructure. Boasting a compact size of only 56mm x 64mm x 125 mm, the series camera block can be included in space-limited application Settings.
They support an operating temperature range of -5c to +60C, with an internal temperature measurement sensor providing continuous monitoring. The power supply ranges from 7VDC to 12VDC. - the power of the EV9500H, EV9500M, and EV9500L is 6.3W, 6.8W, and 7.8W.
