Álava Ingenieros and Photonfocus sign a distribution agreement

The Swiss multinational specialized in CMOS image sensors and industrial cameras with this element thus becomes a new partner for Spain and Portugal in the areas of imaging and photonics.

Photonfocus, a Swiss manufacturer of industrial cameras and CMOS sensors with patented LinLog technology for machine vision and optical metrology, and the Spanish Álava Engineers have signed a distribution agreement for the imaging and photonics business area in Spain and Portugal.

As Ricardo Azaustre, business development in these areas at Álava Ingenieros, explains, "Photonfocus has extensive experience in the design of image sensors. CMOS technology is complemented by real-time preprocessing in FPGAs or DSPs, allowing its application in multiple artificial vision applications. In addition, it is a pioneer in the development and design of software-defined camera platforms and preprocessing of IP images."

Among the Swiss manufacturer's range of cameras are high dynamic range (HDR) CMOS for standard vision and optical metrology applications; high-speed GigE Vision; 3D CMOS systems with LinLog technology, hyperspectral cameras with GigE Vision interface and multi-line linear cameras with CMOS technology.

Gracias a este acuerdo, “los clientes de Álava Ingenieros en España y Portugal van a tener a su alcance innovaciones de productos sostenibles y competitivos, desarrollados y adaptados por Photonfocus. Les vamos a ofrecer un desarrollo de productos personalizado, con un servicio exclusivo para garantizar que cada solución se implemente con éxito.
