Low-power image sensor ASICs for optical monitoring

Over the years, Presto Engineering has developed image sensor ICs for various sensor applications, providing low-power consumption, high sensitivity and fast image updates. The Heimdall toolbox implements smart, single-chip optical systems, and it has been used across a range of industrial environments such as IoT, motion and luminance detection, object tracking and data communication via RF links.

We use the minimal image resolution necessary for each application, together with smart software algorithms, to integrate image sensing capabilities into battery-powered or battery-less optical sensor solutions. Our optical experts help integrate and customize the optical design for each customer application. We determine the optimal setup for on-chip/off-chip components, including sensor size, analogue amplifiers and digital control/communication, in order to minimise price, size and power consumption.
