When illumination is adequate for colour movable Infrared CUT
Optical Filter is positioned between Lens & Image Sensor to
exclude Infrared radiation that would otherwise adversely
affect colour reproduction, this ensures
colour rendition not possible with ordinary
non-filtered or notch-filter type Day/Night cameras.
When illumination is low Optical Filter is
removed to allow Infrared to pass enhancing Infrared and low
light sensitivity, the result is significantly better low
light images when used with an
Infrared Illuminator or Infrared rich light sources.
Infrared Response

Every
Pixel Tells A Story
Pixim-Powered
cameras provide the surveillance market with something truly
unique—the Digital Pixel System ® technology. Not only is Pixim’s
technology the only all-digital image solution, but it is the only
technology to employ hundreds of thousands of pixels each acting
like individual cameras. These constantly self-adjusting pixels
eliminate image-compromising visual noise and deliver
high-resolution, natural colour and clarity. The result is simply
unparalleled image quality regardless of lighting conditions or
applications.
Pixim’s
patented Digital Pixel System ® technology marks a fundamental
breakthrough in imaging technology. Building upon technology
developed at Stanford University in the 1990s, Pixim has created an
image capture and processing system that provides high-quality
pictures with enhanced dynamic range. Greater dynamic range
significantly improves image quality in scenes consisting of both
bright and dark areas.
Pixim Inside
The core
invention in the Digital Pixel System technology is the inclusion of
an analog-to-digital converter (ADC) within each pixel of the image
sensor. The ADC translates the light signal into a digital value at
the immediate point of capture, thus minimizing signal degradation
and cross-talk in the array and allowing for greater noise reduction
methods. Once the data is captured in a digital format, a variety of
digital signal processing techniques are used for optimal image
reproduction.
Analog CCD Camera
All pixels in the array have the
exact same shutter speed
Result:
-
Bright areas overexposed
-
Dark areas underexposed
Because
each pixel has its own analog-to-digital converter and the
information generated is captured and processed independently, each
pixel in effect acts as its own camera. The exposure time for each
pixel is adjusted to handle the unique lighting conditions at that
pixel location in the image sensor array. A product built with the
Digital Pixel System platform essentially has hundreds of thousands
of individual cameras, each of which produces the best image
possible. These images are then combined to create a high quality
video frame or picture.
Pixim-Powered Camera
-
Pixels in bright areas
automatically adjust to eliminate overexposure
-
Pixel in dark areas
automatically adjust to eliminate underexposure
-
Only all-digital solution
-
Every pixel is a self-adjusting
camera
In contrast, other technologies
typically set one exposure time for the frame and sample each pixel
at that time – resulting in images with some pixels that are
underexposed (too dark) and some that are overexposed (too bright).
Pixim’s
Video Imaging System, is comprised of a digital image sensor and a
digital image processor. The digital image sensor and digital image
processor function much like the eyes and brain in humans, with
two-way real-time interactivity to capture the highest quality image
possible. Just as the brain of a person walking into a dark room
instructs the eyes to open the pupil to allow in more light, the
digital image processor loads new code into the sensor to alter not
only exposure times but the actual image capture algorithms. The
result: the best possible picture given the specific image
characteristics and lighting conditions.
