The GigE Vision models offer resolutions from VGA to 4 megapixels and are available with CCD as well as CMOS sensors with global shutter, including CMOS variants with increased infrared sensitivity and a polarised monochrome sensor. The USB3 Vision models offer resolutions from VGA up to 5 megapixels. They are available with the fast Python and Aptina global shutter CMOS sensors. The Mako series incorporates both colour and monochrome models.
Allied Vision Mako
Small camera with GigE Vision or USB3 Vision interface
With the ultra-compact Allied Vision Mako camera family, measuring only 49.5 x 29 x 29 mm, Allied Vision offers an entry level model at an interesting price / performance ratio. The cameras incorporate the latest high quality sensors in robust housings, designed for the demanding environmental conditions of industrial imaging.
The Mako series is equipped with an interesting choice of CMOS and CCD sensors in monochrome, colour and polarised, offering resolutions from VGA up to 5 megapixels. All models include a power over interface option, 3 opto-isolated I/Os and a 64 MB FIFO image buffer.
The Mako is a low-cost machine vision camera that comes with a GigE Vision or USB3 Vision interface.
Reasons to select the Allied Vision Mako
Wide variety of sensor models
Suitable for high speed applications
Depending on the model, the Mako has impressive frame rates at full VGA resolution. USB3 Vision Mako variants deliver up to 550 images per second while the GigE variants deliver up to 300 images per second.
Flexible I/O and control options with precise synchronisation
1 or 2 (model dependent) opto isolated GPIO lines provide the ability to be configured as either input or output, providing a high flexibility. The remaining two non-isolated GPIO lines are TTL-based and also programmable as input or output.By offering functionality that would otherwise be provided by external components, implementation time and cost can be reduced, while making maintenance easier by having less components in the system.
The Mako also uses PTP (also known as IEEE 1588), which is a standard network protocol that synchronises the clocks of several devices in a network with one master device. With PTP, Mako cameras can be synchronised to microsecond precision with each other and any other camera or device supporting this standard. This allows accurate inspection with multi-camera imaging systems. PTP provides better accuracy than NTP without increasing component cost and at a lower cost than GPS.
Easy integration
The extremely small and light-weight housing allows the design of very compact OEM and multi-camera solutions. The integration into existing systems with restricted space availability for machine vision components is simplified.
Mako GigE Vision models can be powered directly from the interface cable (PoE for GigE Vision models), or can be supplied using a Hirose connector with up to 24 volts. USB3 Vision models offer Power over USB.
Making the invisible visible with the help of polarisation
The polarisation Mako camera features a Polarsens 5.0 MP IMX250MZR monochrome CMOS sensor that incorporates the latest four-directional polarisation filter technology from Sony. The sensor’s on-chip nanowire polarising layer supports four orientations (0°, 45°, 90°, and 135°). Each pixel of the sensor captures polarised light in relation to its specific wire-grid axis, enabling multiple polarisation imaging data to be collected in a single exposure.
Polarisation imaging allows a reduction in the reflections that hinder a surface inspection and contrast enhancement in low light conditions to detect shapes.
Various material properties can be detected that cannot be seen using conventional imaging. These include stress, composition, or surface structure. Applications include:
- Surface inspection (for damage, flatness, scratches)
- Low-contrast imaging (e.g carbon fibre, tires, welding spots)
- Material stress detection
- Reduced reflection imaging

"Polarisation imaging reveals the light's 3rd 'dimension', thus making it usable for machine vision."
