Sony has been recognised for its excellence in image sensors for decades. choosing their image sensors means betting on proven innovation. That’s why their applications in industrial automation ensure exceptional results, offering high resolution with fast and reliable readings. Additionally, they are compact and easy to integrate with existing systems. Thus, by investing in Sony’s image sensors, you reduce adaptation time and almost immediately increase productivity. Moreover, these image sensors are recognized for their versatility, as they adapt to many applications, from visual inspections to smart robotic systems. Therefore, using Sony’s image sensors for industrial automation strongly benefits your company in terms of quality control and performance.

Sony’s image sensors are designed to meet the demands of the modern industry. They use advanced technologies that eliminate distortion in images of fast-moving objects, ensuring precision even in high-speed environments. Logically, this feature is essential for the reliability of inspections and measurements on automated production lines. Additionally, Sony’s image sensors are used in machine vision systems, which are also applied in industrial automation. This integration enables the development of customized solutions for inspection, control, and identification, increasing efficiency and reducing human errors in production processes.

Sony’s image sensors shine in applications that require high precision. For example, in the metal industry, the IMX06A model detects scratches on plates using ultraviolet light.

The IMX06A delivers the highest resolution in a 1” format with 50MP and a rolling shutter design. With its on-chip re-mosaic function, MIPI interface, excellent low noise, and wide dynamic range, it is ideal for visual inspection and industrial applications that demand extreme sensitivity and detail. The IMX530, a flagship back-illuminated global shutter sensor, provides both high resolution and high speed, making it a top choice for industrial automation and precision inspection tasks. For even broader capability, the IMX992 brings the industry’s smallest pixel size and highest resolution among SWIR image sensors. By combining visible and SWIR imaging in one device, it enables high quantum efficiency from 0.4 μm to 1.7 μm, giving production lines new levels of accuracy in detecting features invisible to the human eye.

That makes the IMX992 perfect for detecting fast-moving objects, equipment monitoring, motion detection analysis, and accurate image recognition. Furthermore, its energy consumption is extremely low. 

Sony offers a wide range of image sensors, each with specific features to meet the diverse needs of the industry.
