Sensor captures 15 full-frame images per
second
A 2 megapixel vision sensor is believed to be the first one that captures full-frame, 1600 x 1200 images at up to 15 frames per second for highly detailed inspection of fast moving objects.
Cognex, the world's leading supplier of machine vision systems and vision sensors, today announced the In-Sight 5403, a 2 megapixel vision sensor The In-Sight 5403 is the first vision sensor that captures full-frame, 1600 x 1200 images at up to 15 frames per second for highly detailed inspection of fast moving objects

Cognex says that Wieland-Werke AG, one of the world's largest copper strip manufacturers, has integrated Cognex's SmartView ICN web inspection system on its copper pickling line in Germany.
The increased resolution of the In-Sight 5403 provides unsurpassed accuracy for precision gauging, alignment, and fine defect inspection on very small parts.
By capturing images of larger parts or viewing multiple objects simultaneously, the 5403 performs inspections that formerly required multiple sensors.
With two and a half times the resolution of standard vision sensors, the In-Sight 5403 enhances considerably the existing In-Sight 5400 Series with even more powerful options for applications that require very precise and repeatable measurements.
The consumer products and automotive industries will benefit directly from this new 'top-of-the-line' vision sensor.
As with other In-Sight 5000 Series vision sensors, the 5403 is a self-contained, industrial-grade vision sensor that meets IEC specifications for shock and vibration, and achieves an IP67 (NEMA 6) rating for dust and wash-down protection.
It offers built-in Ethernet communications and In-Sight Explorer software that combines the unique and powerful vision spreadsheet interface with advanced tools to simplify application development and network administration.
