Product Overview
The IMX264MZR-C is a 5.07 MP polarized monochrome CMOS sensor with global shutter technology, designed for industrial imaging, 3D scanning, and reflection removal applications.
The Sony Pregius IMX264MZR-C is a 5.07 MP polarized monochrome CMOS image sensor designed for specialized industrial applications such as 3D scanning, robot vision, and reflection removal in intelligent transportation systems (ITS). This sensor features a diagonal 11.1 mm (Type 2/3) optical size and a pixel array of 2464 x 2056 pixels. With its unique four-directional polarizer, the IMX264MZR-C captures detailed polarized images in a single shot, making it ideal for applications that require precise image capture of complex surfaces. The global shutter ensures distortion-free imaging, especially in fast-moving environments, while its 3.45 µm square pixels deliver high sensitivity and low dark current for excellent image quality, even in low-light conditions. The sensor supports a frame rate of 35.7 fps and operates using LVDS for fast data transmission, facilitating real-time image analysis. Encased in a robust 226-pin LGA package, the IMX264MZR-C is well-suited for industrial applications requiring precision, speed, and efficient reflection removal.
