Global Contact Image Sensor Market Professional Survey Report 2020

Contact image sensor is a kind of integrated module. It is a combination of an optical, a light sensing and an illumination system; all within one compact system. It is a type of LED sensor having useful applications in scanner technologies. Contact image sensor has become popular as it is a small and economic power source of imaging capability. Contact image sensor can sense any light which incident over its silicon surface. The distance between the document being scanned and the sensor is very less in the contact image sensor. Unlike CCD technology (charged coupled device), the size of every cell of the silicon surface is equal to the scale of the information to be scanned or captured. The image enlargement and reduction is not required when contact image sensor scans the image. Manufacturers are trying to innovate optical technologies with the help of contact image sensor. Brightness, uniformity, depth of illumination and optical simulation technology are some of the unique features of the contact image sensing technology.

Contact image sensor is widely used in scanners (especially portable scanners), optical identification technology, electrographs and bar code readers. Contact image sensor can be used in place of line cameras as surface inspection devices. It can detect substandard conditions such as the coloring, dirt, missing parts, and positioning of the circuit boards, plastic films, printed documents, and sheet iron, etc. It can also be used for high-speed scanning for authentication of items such as banknotes. Contact image sensor is also widely utilized in the scanning part of copy machines as scanners.
