Charge coupled device (CCD) cameras contain light-sensitive silicon chips that detect electrons excited by incoming light.

Charged coupled device (CCD) image sensors are electronic devices that are capable of transforming a light pattern (image) into an electric charge pattern (an electronic image

Vision sensors are machine vision video cameras with integrated signal processing and imaging electronics.

Video cameras take continuous pictures and generate signals for display or recording.

High speed cameras are designed for rapid image acquisition for scientific or industrial analysis of rapidly changing or moving processes.

Optical triangulation position sensors use reflected waves to pinpoint position and displacement.

Complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS) cameras use image sensors that operate at lower voltages than charged coupled devices (CCDs), reducing power consumption for portable applications.
