Abstract
A vision sensor includes a sensor assembly and a dedicated microprocessor. The sensor assembly includes a pixel array and a lens assembly that is optically coupled with the pixel array. The lens assembly has an F#<2, a total track length less than 4 mm, and a field of view of at least +/−20 degrees. The dedicated microprocessor is configured to perform computer vision processing computations based on image data received from the sensor assembly and includes an interface for a second processor.
