An Industry-Leading CMOS Sensor

The 5040 is equipped with global shutter and a sensor size of 8.8 x 7.0 mm. It offers enhanced NIR sensitivity. It also provides lightning-fast frame rates of 120 fps and is available in three color options: RGB, Mono, and RGB-NIR.

Specialized RGB-NIR Pixel Filter Array

By replacing one of the green filters on a standard color CMOS sensor with a Near Infra-Red (NIR) filter, image processing from this sensor allows for the separation of visible and NIR spectrums. Discrete analysis of these bands from a single image simplifies dual sensor systems by reducing size, weight, and power (SWaP) requirements, provides added capabilities to systems that can benefit from the additional band, and enhances current solutions already detecting in both the NIR and visible wavelengths such as precision agriculture with the benefit of 120 MP resolution.

Innovative Pixel Designs Enable Simultaneous Visible and NIR Detection
