The IMX900 is an image sensor that uses 2.25 µm miniature pixels and achieves a high resolution of approximately 3.2 effective megapixels despite its small size – a 1/3.1-type sensor with a diagonal of 5.81 mm.

Using a compact, high-resolution image sensor enables wide-range shooting with a compact camera, helping to resolve the issues of camera cost and limited system installation space. The IMX900 also features greatly improved incident light angle dependency and better near-infrared (NIR) sensitivity. This enables greater freedom in lens design and can improve recognition precision in applications that use NIR lighting, such as inspections.

The IMX900 has many other features, such as Fast AE (Auto Exposure), Quad HDR (High Dynamic Range), and Quad Shutter Control (four individual shutter controls), making it a great choice to support optimal photography while also reducing the burden of post-processing.

With these capabilities, the IMX900 demonstrates excellence in a variety of applications where there are high expectations for compact and high-performance mounted products, including compact barcode-reading cameras for the logistics market and robot-picking cameras for production lines. It can also be used in automated guided vehicles (AGVs) and autonomous mobile robots (AMRs), supporting and even replacing the human workforce.

The IMX900 achieves nearly double sensitivity in the NIR region (850 nm) compared to a conventional product.* It can be applied to use cases that utilize NIR lighting, such as product inspection and AGV/AMR applications. It also features improved sensitivity on the red wavelength, making it optimal for barcode reading using red lighting.
