CMOS Global Shutter Cameras
Modern CMOS sensors are available with global shutter, which is a shutter technology that is ideal for capturing moving objects. If a camera needs to capture moving objects and fast motion sequences, the type of shutter as well as the sensor technology are key factors for image quality.
Global shutter vs. Rolling Shutter
Quando si sceglie una telecamera per un sistema di elaborazione delle immagini, non solo la risoluzione e la velocità sono decisive, ma anche il metodo di esposizione, e quindi il tipo di shutter, sono fondamentali. Il nostro white paper spiega come funzionano l'global shutter e l'rolling shutter
How does a global shutter sensor work?
A global shutter exposes all lines of an image at the same time, 'freezing' the moving object in place. This prevents motion distortions, making global shutter technology the ideal choice for applications with moving objects and rapid movement sequences, such as automatic license plate detection in traffic monitoring.
The benefits of modern CMOS global shutter sensors:
High frame rates
High resolution
Crystal-clear images, even for very short exposures
Outstanding noise characteristics, even in poor lighting conditions
Broad dynamic range
High quantum efficiency of up to 70%
