AP Technologies Ltd

Stand 2402

AP Technologies will be exhibiting the latest 30° 2-colour high power LED "Metal Reflector Array" from Opto Diode.

MRA combines low thermal resistance substrates with high optical efficiency beam-shaping reflector cavities to facilitate high power, low profile, compact footprint arrays with excellent uniformity.

Standard single-colour MRA devices are available from 395 nm to 870 nm with beam angles of 40°, 70° and 110° FWHM.
MRA is a flexible technology platform which can be used for bespoke solutions including multiple wavelengths.

A range of operational MRAs will be shown on our stand along with examples of bespoke configurations.


AP Technologies Ltd.

Stand 2402

AP Technologies announces Opto Diode’s ODA-6W-500M which combines a high responsivity 6mm˛ photodiode with 500 MOhm gain and low noise preamplifier.

The ODA-6W-500 is supplied in a hermetic TO-5 package and has a frequency response of 130Hz, a low Offset Voltage of ± 2mV maximum and Dark Offset Noise of only 230 µV rms.

The standard red/NIR-enhanced device has a sensitivity of 250 V/µW at 940 nm – visible enhanced versions are available.

Typical applications are fluorescence spectroscopy and low-light-level tasks where electrical noise can affect the photodiode signal if the detector and amplifier are separate components on a circuit board.

Firstsight Vision Offers JAI C3 Camera Range

Firstsight Vision is offering the JAI C3 range of CCD digital cameras based on JAI’s Core Camera Concept (C3), featuring Advanced, Basic and Compact models. All models are available with GigE Vision interfaces, making it easy to switch between cameras to meet specific application and work environment needs without changing cabling or software. All C3 cameras share the same control and configuration methods for easy integration. This fits perfectly with Firstsight Vision’s aim to provide the best vision technology for OEM’s and Integrators. Some models are also available with CameraLink or Mini-CL interfaces.



FLIR Systems Ltd.

Stand 2513

At IPOT 2008 FLIR Systems will demonstrate how easy and quick it is to integrate thermal imaging into the design and production process. In its new ThermoVision™ A-Series the company has taken the easy connectivity common in the visual camera sector and applied it to infrared. And for those involved in high speed, high resolution R&D applications FLIR Systems’ top-of-the-range SC6000 will also be put through its paces.

Showing for the first time in the UK at IPOT 2008, the ThermoVision™ A-Series are the first ever thermal cameras to be GigEVision™ and GenICam™ compatible and to feature a trigger/synchronisation capability.



Hamamatsu Photonics UK Ltd.

Stand 2505

At IPOT 2008, Hamamatsu will introduce the new ImagEM Enhanced Camera, a back-thinned, electron multiplier (EM) CCD Camera for low light fluorescence imaging, ultra-low light luminescence imaging and high dynamic range brightfield imaging.

We will also introduce the new RC series OEM Mini-Spectrometers, which integrate a reflecting objective and CMOS image sensor in an all-glass body inside a rugged, ultra-compact package.

Also on show, the new C10000 TDI (time delay integration) board level CCD line scan camera and the new multi-pixel photon counter (MPPC) S10362-11 series featuring brand new technology utilizing a Geiger-mode avalanche photodiode structure for ultra-low-level light detection.

Kappa opto-electronics GmbH

Stand 2418

Kappa has successfully extended its camera range with Gigabit Ethernet cameras.
The cameras allow cable lengths of up to 100m/330ft (CAT5E) and are available with various sensors; in color, monochrome or cooled versions, with megapixel resolution, frame rates of up to 30 fps/90 Fps and short trigger delay of 6,75 micrroseconds. The Kappa Software pool offers three different tools: The control software KCC, the software development kit Sdk3 for integration, and the application software KIB for standard measurement tasks. Special Kappa features like the camera-internal color processing and the camera-internal signature creation are also available for the GigE camera model range.



Laser Components (UK) Ltd.

Stand 2510

LASER COMPONENTS will be exhibiting their products and services with special focus on the hugely successful range of in-house manufactured pulsed laser diodes (PLDs) and avalanche photodiodes (APDs), that offer competitive advantages for speed camera and range finder manufacturers.

Also displayed will be laser optics, optical filters, laser diode modules, fibre optics, and accessories such as laser goggles, IR converter cards and electronic modules, such as low noise lock-in amplifiers.


LINOS Photonics Ltd.

Stand 2418

LINOS Photonics Ltd is announcing for the first time at IPOT the creation of their NEW Industrial and Machine Vision Division.

SAP Ltd. (Special Application Products Ltd.)

Stand 2303

SAP Ltd offers a complete line of mounted filters specifically created for industrial machine vision applications. Filters developed for photography are often not readily adaptable to industrial vision equipment nor do they result in the best solutions.

Designed for use with machine vision systems using LED lighting, fibre optic illumination, structured diode-generated light patterns, and other lighting commonly used in machine vision applications.
When matched together with the correct lighting, filtering is one of the most important factors that control the ability of an optical system to produce acceptable results. Selecting the right filter for the job is therefore critical.
