A line-scan sensor is a specialised device that employs a row of sensors to take a series of quick one-pixel “slices” of a digital image. This calls for either the subject to be moving past the sensor or the sensor to be moving past the subject.
The slices are combined into a 2D image after the capture is finished. Area scan or region array cameras, on the other hand, take photographs of a whole 2D area all at once.
Scanners frequently employ line-scan technology because it is particularly effective at capturing photos of moving objects. A contact image sensor, a unique type of line-scan device, is used by check scanners.
The Global line scanner sensor market accounted for $XX Billion in 2021 and is anticipated to reach $XX Billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of XX% from 2022 to 2030.
A high speed CMOS line scan image sensor system on chip (SoC) by Teledyne ANAFOCUS, the LS4k is designed for applications needing quick exposure periods and high line rates.
It includes two pixel arrays with two rows of 4,096 pixels with a 7-micron pitch and four rows of 2,048 pixels with a 14-micron pitch, respectively, as well as an analog-to-digital converter (ADC) with high accuracy (12 bits), high speed (84 MHz), and sophisticated on-chip optical calibration for PRNU, DSNU, and lens shading correction.
The line scan image sensor makes use of active CMOS pixels with pinned photodiodes to produce high-quality images while preserving the benefits of the CMOS process in terms of size, cost, and integration. Pixel binning is allowed by the readout path, which boosts response and line rate.
