Atlas10 10GigE with RDMA
We announced 10GigE with Remote Direct Memory Access (RDMA) for optimized image streaming. The Atlas10 camera with RDMA streams 1.2 GB/s of data directly to main memory, bypassing the CPU and OS. This increases throughput, lowers latency, and eliminates CPU usage. Learn more

Triton EVS Camera
This year, we demonstrated the Triton EVS event-based camera featuring PROPHESEE’s Metavision® sensor. Event-based vision opens up new industrial applications as it significantly improves performance, lowers power consumption, and provides a more flexible solution for machine vision applications Learn More

Atlas10 UV Camera
The Atlas10 UV is a 10GigE PoE+ camera. Featuring Sony's high-sensitivity UV 8.1 MP IMX487 sensor, it captures images across the ultraviolet light spectrum. This provides greater precision in applications involving transparent materials (plastic and PET), semiconductor inspection, materials sorting, and more. Learn More

Helios2 Wide FoV Camera
The new Helios2 Wide field-of-view time-of-flight camera is suited for applications with a close working distance and large area of operation. It pairs Sony’s DepthSense™ IMX556PLR back-illuminated ToF image sensor with a 108 degree wide-angle lens.
