Key Takeaways

• The stacked event-based vision sensor is the industry's smallest*¹ 4.86μm pixel size and the highest*¹ 124dB (or more) HDR performance.

• This joint development combines technical features of Sony's stacked CMOS image sensor, resulting in small pixel size and excellent low light performance that are achieved by the use of Cu-Cu connection*², with Prophesee's Metavision? Event-based vision sensing technologies leading to fast pixel response, high temporal resolution and high throughput data readout.

• The newly developed sensor is suitable for various machine vision applications, such as detecting fast moving objects in a wide range of environments and conditions.

About Prophesee

Prophesee develops the world's most advanced neuromorphic vision systems. The company's Event-Based approach to machine vision allows for significant reductions of power, latency and data processing requirements as compared to traditional frame-based vision systems.

Prophesee's sensors and algorithms are designed to mimic the way biological eyes and brains work - with the goal to significantly improve performance, power and data efficiency of artificial vision systems in areas such as autonomous vehicles, industrial automation, IoT, security and surveillance, and AR/VR.
