Pharmaceutical

Machine vision pharmaceutical cameras can detect abnormalities in product packaging such as breaks in seals, damaged capsules, incorrect labeling and printing errors. Additionally, image analysis can be used to calculate the exact amount of product in a container, ensuring that it meets the stated volume or weight requirements. The most important requirements for cameras in the pharmaceutical industry: High optical resolution, High color fidelity for inspection of packaging, tablets and diagnostic applications, Very low dark noise of CCD cameras for high quality microscopy images, Fast image acquisition and high image transfer rates, Precise trigger synchronization for multi-camera image acquisition

DNA Sequencing

DNA sequencing, the process of determining the physical order of the four bases of DNA: A, G, C, and T, is a method for obtaining biometric data. Previous methods using area scan and line scan cameras in DNA sequencing proved insufficient. Time Delay Integration (TDI) camreas amplify camera sensitivity to detect weak signals without degrading image quality by oversampling a scene across more rows of pixels, synchronized in a time-delayed fashion with the relative motion between the scene and line sensors.
