Going polarised - Polarisation adds a new perspective to the imaging industry

In many machine vision applications the use of polarisation cameras can provide information that cannot be obtained with standard monochrome, colour, multi-spectral or hyperspectral cameras. In this white paper, Lucid Vision Labs provides a deeper insight into how polarising light works, what makes the Sony IMX250MZR and IMX250MYR polarised sensors unique, and what type of applications polarisation can be used for. In addition, we explain some of the existing polarisation methods and give a brief perspective into the future of polarisation in the imaging industry.
