Application Expertise Meets Modular Camera Platform


For over 25 years, Photonfocus has been developing CMOS sensors and industrial cameras for demanding machine vision and image processing applications. Our modular camera experts understand not only camera technology but also the requirements of real-world industrial applications.

From high-speed inspection to spectral imaging and embedded vision systems, they help OEMs and integrators find the right camera solution. This is made possible by a modular camera platform that can be flexibly adapted to meet a variety of requirements.

How We Find the Best Application Fit for You

Camera Experts first analyze the image processing task and use that analysis to determine the camera, optics, and system configuration

Our Modular Camera Experts analyze your machine vision task and use that analysis to determine the appropriate camera, lens, and system configuration.

1. Application Analysis
We analyze your machine vision task, environmental conditions, and technical requirements.

2. Camera and System Recommendations
Based on your application, we recommend a suitable camera, lens, and system configuration.

3. Optimization Recommendations
We identify opportunities to improve performance, reduce complexity, and minimize project risks.

The right camera solution starts with the application

High resolutions, specific spectral ranges, embedded processing, interfaces, or integration requirements cannot always be optimally met with a standard camera. Our Modular Camera experts analyze your application’s requirements and recommend the sensor, spectral, processing, and integration options that best meet your technical needs.

icon resolution

Resolution & Image QualityThe Right Sensor Solution for Your Application
Image quality results from the interplay of resolution, speed, and integration requirements. The right sensor solution is selected based on your application.

icon spectral range

Spectral RangeMaking the Right Information Visible
Many image processing tasks require more than just visible light. Depending on the application, different sensor technologies and spectral ranges are used—from UV through visible light to NIR, SWIR, and hyperspectral imaging.

icon data processing

Data ProcessingThe Right Processing Power for Your Application
Data volume, processing speed, and real-time capability place different demands on image processing. FPGA processors and embedded logic enable efficient processing directly within the camera.

icon interfaces

Interfaces & Integration Designed for Seamless System Integration
Choosing the right interface affects data rate, system architecture, and integration effort. GigE, 10GigE, CoaXPress, and other options enable integration into existing machine vision, automation, and embedded systems.
