In consumer applications this Fujufilm’s announcement would sound like from 10 years ago. But medical market is different: “Fujifilm is proud to make use of the over-megapixel customised CMOS sensor. Our experience over many years in optoelectronics and electronic imaging shows the superior quality of this technology and we can expect that our customers will see the difference instantly” says Kazuhiko Takemura, Head of European Endoscope Department, Fujifilm Europe.
By adapting a CMOS image sensor, Fujifilm’s 600 series endoscopes enable super-high resolution images to be produced. The leading-edge CMOS technology realizes less noise and brilliant images by converting the analog signal to digital in the tip of the scope. During transmission the digital signal is much less affected by any noise from the outside. CMOS technology also realizes 60fps progressive video.
