High-brightness light source "Arcturus" for high-sensitivity sensor testing.
A new high-brightness light source from the Vega series that enables high-precision testing of the latest high dynamic range camera systems.
In today's image sensor and high dynamic range settings, testing the sensor in a saturated state or just before saturation is very difficult. By using Arcturus, we can stably generate brightness levels that were previously unattainable, allowing us to challenge even higher sensitivity sensors with sufficient brightness. Therefore, it provides powerful additional features to the Vega product series.

Applications/Examples of results
Use Cases of Arcturus in In-Vehicle Camera Systems In-vehicle camera systems need to be tested in various lighting environments, particularly those that comply with the newly established IEEE-P2020 standard. One of the most challenging scenarios in testing is the operation of camera systems under direct sunlight. Generating this level of illumination in a test lab is often difficult, but Arcturus can simulate the intensity of direct sunlight with very high stability compared to other light sources. This capability allows for a more efficient evaluation of camera systems in the test lab. *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.*
