Shanghai, March 25–26, 2026 — As machine vision technology accelerates the advancement of smart manufacturing, a focused industry conference centered on in-depth exchange and cutting-edge technology demonstrations was held at the Atour Hotel Conference Hall in Shanghai's Zhangjiang Science City. The event was hosted by Heqian Image, a domestic vision and imaging solution provider, under the theme "Unfolding New Insights, Revealing Brilliance," with the goal of creating a more relaxed and focused communication platform. Notably, Chengdu Image Design Technology Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as "IMAGE DESIGN") made a prominent appearance with its ISG series industrial image sensors, showcasing a lineup of core products including the ISG3305, ISG1206, ISG2021, and the IST1001/IST1002, engaging with industry peers on new possibilities for machine vision in high-end manufacturing.

The ISG3305, a highlight of the exhibition, is a 39-megapixel ultra-high-resolution CMOS image sensor designed for high-end industrial vision and precision inspection. Its core strengths lie in high resolution, high rate, low noise, and superior image quality. Equipped with a global shutter and high-speed burst capture technology, it delivers stable, motion-artifact-free image acquisition even on high-speed production lines. Its enhanced near-infrared (NIR) sensitivity significantly improves detection capability at specific wavelengths, enabling outstanding performance in demanding defect identification applications such as Automated Optical Inspection (AOI).

Also on display was the ISG1206, a 12-megapixel global shutter CMOS image sensor. Combining high resolution, high rate, and enhanced NIR sensitivity, it achieves a maximum rate of 160 fps at full resolution. The global shutter design eliminates motion artifacts and image distortion during high-speed capture, instantly producing clear, undistorted images. These features make it an ideal solution for intelligent transportation systems, meeting the rigorous demands of electronic police and checkpoint monitoring applications that require high-definition, distortion-free capture of fast-moving vehicles. Its exceptional imaging performance also extends to industrial inspection and high-end machine vision scenarios requiring precision measurement and high-speed analysis.

The ISG2021, a high-performance 2.3-megapixel global shutter CMOS image sensor purpose-built for machine vision and barcode scanning applications, also made its debut at the conference. In machine vision, its ultra-high rate of 120 fps coupled with the global shutter enables precise capture of instantaneous images of fast-moving targets, meeting the stringent timing accuracy requirements of precision inspection and positioning. Its 66.5 dB high dynamic range ensures rich detail is preserved across both highlights and shadows in complex lighting conditions. The sensor is equally well-suited as the core component in high-end barcode scanning equipment, significantly improving the success rate and efficiency of high-speed barcode reading. For a wide range of industrial ded applications, it offers a highly reliable and easily integrable vision solution.

Beyond the global shutter area-scan sensors, IMAGE DESIGN also presented its latest achievements in line scan technology, highlighting two high-performance line scan camera solutions d on its self-developed TDI image sensors — the 3K (IST1001) and 7K (IST1002). The core advantages of this solution are reflected in its large pixel design, ultra-high line rate, and enhanced ultraviolet (UV) sensitivity. Through TDI multi-stage charge integration, it significantly improves the signal-to-noise ratio under low-light conditions, meeting the stringent demands of ultra-high-speed inspection. The conference featured a live demonstration of the TDI camera d on the 3K-resolution sensor, which offers 256-stage integration capability and a line rate of up to 1.5 MHz. With its excellent UV spectral response, the camera is uniquely suited for high-end applications such as semiconductor defect analysis and display panel inspection, providing a more comprehensive vision perception solution for smart manufacturing.

IMAGE DESIGN's in-depth participation in this industry conference marks a key step in the company's efforts to deepen industry partnerships and stay closely aligned with market demands. Through face-to-face exchanges with channel partners and industry experts, IMAGE DESIGN aims to accelerate the deployment and application of its ISG/IST series industrial sensors in high-end sectors including semiconductor inspection, intelligent transportation, and precision measurement. As Industry 4.0 continues to advance, IMAGE DESIGN remains committed to delivering high-performance, high-reliability vision sensing core components, driving the independent and controllable development of China's machine vision industry chain, and joining industry partners in "Revealing the Brilliance" of smart manufacturing's exciting future.
