Progress of line sensors

Since the end of last year, we have been developing a new FlexInspector that uses line sensors.

but to be honest, we are struggling with a lot of things.

As a big part, applying the FI algorithm to the huge images of line sensors consumes a tremendous amount of memory. This makes it necessary to convert the computer to 64-bit, and we struggled to prepare the computer.

When the system is converted to 64-bit with a 64-bit board, the number of available image input boards will be extremely limited. Board manufacturers have little track record, and are almost always in a state of being human pillars. We are completely exploring uncharted territory.

But that will soon be over. Most of the technical issues are being solved.
It is expected that 7400 x 12000 pixels can be imaged in about 1 second and inspected in about 2 seconds.
With a resolution of 30μm per pixel, A4 size can be imaged and inspected in 3 seconds.

THE METHODOLOGY IS THE SAME AS FOR CONVENTIONAL FI,

• object-unrestricted
• Can be made drivable in a matter of minutes.
• Strong detection capability that is said to be several orders of magnitude higher than the same pixel resolution
• Sensory agreement between inspection results and visual inspection results

The characteristics of the product are still the same.

I have a feeling that it will be something of a "monster".

And the line sensor has an unexpected byproduct...
