PRIMOPIX DPS TECH - Ultra Wide Dynamic Range

With PrimoPIX Primo is setting new standards in the field of video camera technology for security applications. The innovative sensor concept of PrimoPix technology is based on the most up-to-date »Digital Pixel System® (DPS)« platform. With this technology, the picture information of each individual pixel is converted digitally at the point of capture and processed in the most optimal way. Therefore, even situations with a great range in contrast can be recorded and documented in picture qualities previously unseen.

With this UWDR technology (Ultra Wide Dynamic Range), the Primo cameras have the advantage over all previously known processes in that they can display considerably more details in shaded and very bright sections of a picture. The latest generation of high-resolution sensor technology also provides clear, high-contrast and color-true pictures without any blooming or smearing even in the most difficult lighting conditions, e.g. against strong backlighting, in conjunction with the software developed especially for the security field.

BeraPix CCD Technology
The core invention in DPS (Digital Pixel System) is the inclusion of an analog-to-digital converter (ADC) within each pixel of the image sensor. The ADC translated the light signal into a digital value at the immediate point of capture, thus minimizing signal degradation and cross-talk in the array and allowing for greater noise reduction methods. Once the data is captured in a digital format, a variety of digital signal processing techniques are used for optimal image reproduction.

  • PrimoPix DPS technology uses a technique known as “multi-sampling” to gather the information to achieve unmatched image quality and high dynamic range. Each pixel is independently sampled non-destructive multiple times in a single capture frame (which in video is typically 50 or 60 times per second). The imaging system determines the optimal time to sample and store the pixel information before the pixel is saturated and can no longer hold additional charge. In the graphic on the bottom, the light pixel is saved at time T3, the latest sample time before it saturates at 100 percent. The dark pixel builds up charge more slowly and uses additional time until it is sampled and stored at T5.

The stored values of information (intensity, time, noise offset) captured at each pixel are then processed in parallel and converted into high-quality images. In contrast, other technologies typically set one exposure time for the frame and sample each pixel at that time-resulting in images with some pixels that are underexposed (too dark) and some that are overexposed (too bright).
