In the rapidly evolving world of video surveillance, the advent of High Definition Transport Video Interface (HD-TVI) technology has been a game-changer for many professionals in the industry. As a security integrator, understanding the intricacies of HD-TVI, its history, and its impact on the CCTV landscape is essential for makingContinue Reading

What’s STARVIS/STARVIS 2? One of the essential features for security cameras is the imaging ability that delivers clear images in dark locations. Sony’s image sensors with STARVIS/STARVIS 2 technology have the sensitivity well above that of the human eye. They deliver excellent performance in the low- illumination monitoringas they notContinue Reading

In the image sensor market, we are also focusing on the sensing field, where applications are expected to expand. Besides the imaging technology we have honed for viewing captured images, we will be combining this technology with sensing technology for acquiring and using a various information. In this way, weContinue Reading

CMOS image sensor development at Sony began in 1996 and led to the launch of our first CMOS image sensor (IMX001) in 2000. At the time, CMOS image sensors produced noisy images under low light and were also inferior to CCD image sensors in the number of pixels. However, theContinue Reading

In photography, depth of field refers to how much of a three-dimensional space the camera can focus on at once. A shallow depth of field, for example, would keep the subject sharp but blur out much of the foreground and background. Now, researchers at the National Institute of Standards andContinue Reading

“Privid” could help officials gather secure public health data or enable transportation departments to monitor the density and flow of pedestrians, without learning personal information about people. Rachel Gordon | MIT CSAIL Surveillance cameras have an identity problem, fueled by an inherent tension between utility and privacy. As these powerful little devicesContinue Reading

 All-pixel Autofocus? Autofocus on smartphone cameras in general takes phase difference detection.* This means that some pixels on the sensor are dedicated to the detection of phase differences. With this method, the image signal must compensate the areas corresponding to the detection pixels. However, too many detection pixels make itContinue Reading
