X-RAY cameras - support page¶
These are high-end Scientific grade cameras based on various new CMOS and sCMOS (scientific CMOS) sensors like:
Gpixel GSENSE6060, GMAX4651 and Sony IMX455 or IMX411
Their goal is to provide an improved replacement for the discontinued sensor models like:
KAI-08052, KAI-11002 and KAI-16000 ON Semiconductor (former Truesense, Kodak)
The X-RAY cameras from XIMEA are integrated devices - meaning that the Scintillator is part of the camera.
Instead of a lens, the camera has a fiber-optic plate bonded to the sensor, which in turn is coated with the scintillator material P43.
The scientific grade sensor together with the camera core is cooled with two levels of Thermoelectric Peltier elements.
This results in a remarkably compact X-ray camera with a 36 x 24 mm sensor size.
Such cameras are then typically used with Röntgen scanning applied in CT (Computed Tomography) which is an NDE (Nondestructive Evaluation) technique for 2D and 3D cross-sectional representation of an object based on the compilation of X-ray images.
Some models are available with a Taper which can increase the FoV (field of view) of the camera 2:1 or higher.
