LUCID Vision Labs, Inc., today announced the series production of its new Atlas10 camera featuring the Sony IMX487 ultraviolet (UV) sensor.

The ATX081S-UC 10GigE PoE+ UV camera equipped with the high UV sensitivity 8.1 MP Sony IMX487 global shutter CMOS sensor, is capable of capturing images across the ultraviolet light spectrum in the 200 to 400nm range. Utilizing Sony’s Pregius S unique back-illuminated pixel structure, the Atlas10 camera’s high-level UV sensitivity makes it ideal for industrial applications requiring greater precision in transparent materials (plastic and PET), semiconductor pattern defect inspection, material sorting and more.

The Atlas10 10BASE-T camera is known for its industrial reliability offering Power over Ethernet (PoE+), robust M12 and M8 connectors, Active Sensor Alignment for superior optical performance, and a wide ambient temperature range of -20°C to 55°C.

“The Atlas10 UV offers excellent sensitivity in the UV wavelength and is packed with industrial features designed to provide high-speed and reliable operation in challenging environments,” says Rod Barman, President at LUCID Vision Labs. “The Sony IMX487 offers improved quantum efficiency, high dynamic range and reduced noise, enabling high-quality imaging for a broad range of advanced sensing applications.”

The Atlas10 is a GigE Vision and GenICam-compliant camera capable of 10 Gbps data transfer rates and allows the use of standard CAT6 cables up to 25 meters. Atlas10 features Power over Ethernet (PoE+) that simplifies integration and reduces cost.

All LUCID cameras conform to the GigE Vision 2.0 and GenICam3 standards and are supported by LUCID’s own Arena software development kit. The Arena SDK provides customers with easy access to the latest industry standards and software technology. The SDK supports Windows, Linux 64bit and Linux ARM operating systems, and C, C++, C# and Python programming languages.
