Fusion Series Cameras
Multi-Spectral Cameras: Dual-sensor prism technology
JAI’s Fusion Series uses dual-sensor prism technology to deliver imaging solutions that are both innovative and cost-effective.
Multi-spectral cameras perform both visible and near-infrared inspection simultaneously, by splitting incoming light to two separate imagers. This makes it possible to use a single camera to simultaneously inspect both visible elements and sub-surface defects or other information which is optimally detected at NIR wavelengths.
High Dynamic Range (HDR) cameras also split light to two separate sensors, but in this case, the imagers are used to provide two separate exposures which are then fused together in the camera or in post processing. In this way, details in both bright and dark areas can be properly captured, extending the camera’s dynamic range to nearly twice that of a standard CCD. Light Spectrum is Visible = NIR.
Two-In-One Camera
Multi-spectral imaging technology allows users to replace multiple inspection stations with a single set up.
Ease-of-Use
JAI multi-spectral cameras offer ease-of use and lower equipment and maintenance costs.
Exceptionally Good HDR Images
The dual-sensor HDR design enables the capture of full linear high dynamic range image data without the image compression and noise found in typical single sensor HDR cameras.
The two image channels in the HDR camera can be analyzed separately or processed with image fusion algorithms to produce a dynamic range nearly double the normal CCD response.
Flex-Eye lets you leverage JAI´s versatile multispectral prism technology to choose the number of wavebands, the sensor resolution, and the exact spectral range of each channel.
Wavebands can be as narrow as 25 nm and can be situated exactly where you need them — anywhere within the visible and NIR spectral ranges from 405 to 1000 nm.
Sony Pregius CMOS sensors provide outstanding image quality and fast frame rates for your personalized multispectral solution. You can specify up to three separate wavebands at full resolution or use a Bayer sensor in the visible region for interpolation or to extract additional spectral information during post processing.
Fusion series cameras are ideal for application like:
- Inspection of organic items such as fruit and vegetables.
- Inspecting of currency and checks.
- Textile and plastic inspection.
- Circuit board inspection.
- High-end security surveillance.
- LED inspection, welding, glass inspection and solar panel manufacturing.
- Monitoring of industrial furnaces or heated metal.
- Traffic applications
Fusion in Action
Packaging Inspection – Bag of Almonds
The visible channel lets you see the printing on the bag, while the NIR channel lets you see through the printing
|
Packaging Inspection – Blister Pack
The NIR channel lets you see the surface properties
|
Packaging Inspection – Bottle Cap
The visible channel allows inspection of the logo print, while the NIR channel lets you see the surface scratches/defects
|
Food Inspection – Cocoa Beans with Alien Element (Stone)
The NIR channel allows you to locate the alien element (stone) easily
|
Food Inspection – Coffee Beans
It is difficult to pick out the bad coffee bean in the color channel, the NIR channel allows this to be done easily
|
Food Inspection – Fruit
Is the circled area in the first picture natural color variation or a sign of decay? The NIR image reveals the answer – the darker patch is an early sign of decay!
|
PCB Inspection
The visible channel (mono, in this case) shows components on the surface, while the NIR channels lets you see traces between PCB layers.
|
Packaging Inspection – Box with Salt Snacks
The visible channel lets you see the printing on the bag, while the NIR channel lets you see through the printing
|
Packaging Inspection – Bag of Japanese Sugar
The visible channel lets you see the printing on the bag, while the NIR channel lets you see what’s inside
|
Textile Inspection
Pattern inspected in visible (monochrome) vs. foreign thread found in NIR
