  • Page 7: Description

    The UNiiQA+ family has also been designed to be highly modular to enable engineers to reuse the same camera in multiple equipment, simplify logistics and reduce development cycle time. All UNiiQA+ cameras feature Teledyne-e2v’s proprietary CMOS sensors : a single line of highly sensitive pixels of either 5µm or 10µm size.
