Sony IMX929
- Product Image
Sony’s IMX929 is a high-resolution, high-speed, high-sensitivity Global Shutter CMOS image sensor for analytics-ready vision, delivering exceptional image quality in challenging light with fewer artifacts. Fast readout keeps high-motion scenes crisp for sharper analysis, while a low-noise architecture improves SNR at low illumination for better detection confidence. Flexible output interfaces make it easy to integrate with popular SoCs, FPGAs, and ISPs, and Macnica provides a no-soldering evaluation path with kits, drivers, and engineering support, backed by Sony’s long-term availability and ecosystem.
