Alkeria—Stand 8C36
Alkeria announced a dual-USB3 polarization camera series. Instead of using external polarizing filters, Alkeria developed CELERA P, a new camera model featuring a special polarization image sensor. Thanks to its array of polarizer filters overlaid on top of the sensor's pixel array, CELERA P gets rid of all the external polarizing filters, combining the ease-of-use of the Alkeria USB3 cameras with the capabilities of polarization imaging and FusionView feature. Based on the dual-USB3 platform of CELERA cameras, CELERA P can reach up to 152 fps while processing ~200 million vectors per second. Its FPGA architecture allows the CELERA P to execute polarization detection directly on-board, without overloading the computer. Because of its special polarization filter array applied on the sensor, each “superpixel” can acquire 4 different polarization angles simultaneously. CELERA P comes with a 5-MPixel sensor, 2464 x 2056 pixels resolution, and pixel size of 3.45 μm.
