Canon, the leader in imaging technology, has introduced new CMOS sensors for security, industrial, and medical applications. The LI7070SAC (color) and LI7070SAM (monochrome) models feature an impressive 2.12 effective megapixel resolution and 1/1.8-inch CMOS sensor size.

In recent years, alongside the growing demand for security and industrial cameras, there has also been an increase in the need for near-infrared imaging. In response to this demand, Canon has released these new sensors, which stand out for their advanced near-infrared shooting capabilities and ability to perform in environments with sharp contrasts between light and dark.

The LI7070SAC enhances near-infrared sensitivity, enabling monitoring in dark areas that were previously invisible to the naked eye. This feature is a crucial factor in the increased use of the sensor in industrial and medical applications. Additionally, the sensor offers a 120 dB wide dynamic range and a dual exposure method, ensuring high-quality image recording. These features prevent overexposure and shadow crushing in conditions with significant brightness differences, delivering superior image quality.

Canon’s sensors also excel in low-light environments, capturing images with high precision even under challenging conditions. The LI7070SAC can record Full-HD video at 0.08 lux, while the LI7070SAM operates at 0.04 lux. This makes it ideal for night surveillance and other applications requiring high-sensitivity sensors.

With advanced performance and high sensitivity, Canon’s new CMOS sensors continue to revolutionize the fields of security, industrial applications, and medical imaging.
