Teledyne FLIR BFS-PGE-51S5P-C Blackfly S Polarized 5.0 MP GigE (Sony IMX250MZR)
CCD and CMOS Cameras

Point Grey : BFS-PGE-51S5P-C
Description
See the world in a whole new way with the FLIR BFS-PGE-51S5P-C. Sony’s new IMX250MZR with on-sensor polarizing filters adds polarimetry to the FLIR Blacky S already powerful feature-set. The GigE interface enables a global shutter readout at 24 FPS in a compact, low power package. This camera is ideal for building the next generation of polarimetry based industrial, traffic and UAS applications.
The BFS-PGE-51S5P-C leverages Sony’s Pregius global shutter CMOS technology designed to fulfill the promise of global shutter CMOS: crisp, clear, distortion-free images at high speeds.
The IMX250MZR sensor features a smaller and very popular pixel size of 3.45 µm; the smaller pixel size is balanced with lower Temporal Dark Noise to maintain Pregius’ outstanding imaging performance.
Features
Key Features of the BFS-PGE-51S5P-C
Dynamically remove reflections from multiple light sources to improve the contrast of transparent and reflective objects.
FLIR’s Spinnaker SDK supports visualization and output of polarimetric image data.
Proven combability with popular ARM and x64 SBCs, operating systems, and software ensures support for an entire ecosystem of embedded systems.
