Observation of CMOS image sensor cross-section by mechanical polishing.

Due to the presence of both advantages and disadvantages, it is necessary to choose according to the sample form, observation range, purpose, and so on!

At our company, we created cross-sections of the CMOS image sensor components accompanying the VR goggles manufactured by Company A through mechanical polishing in their original state, and conducted structural observations of the CMOS sensor components. During the observation of the sensor component structure and sensor surface, we removed the glass filter and observed the surface of the CMOS sensor, where it was noted that the arrangement of the color filters was in a configuration known as a Bayer filter. In addition to mechanical polishing, methods for creating cross-sections include processing with ion beams such as FIB and CP, as well as microtome methods. Consultations are free, so please feel free to contact us if you are unsure about the cross-section creation methods.

Hotron's "HA Series" is a high-performance doorway monitoring sensor. Even for high doors of 4.0m, it ensures safety while proposing an open and inviting entrance with its doorway monitoring function. 【Surface-Mounted Type HA-400】 ○ Safe and comfortable passage is achievable even with high doors, from lightweight doors to large commercial facilities and office buildings. ○ Maximum installation height of 4.0m! It features a high-density area function with 60 detection spots. 【Recessed Type HA-520】 ○ With a flat finish that does not compromise the aesthetics of the building, it ensures a wide area for safe and comfortable passage. ○ Easy replacement from older models of our own, enhancing sensor performance! 【Lower Surface-Mounted Type HA-430】 ○ With a design that minimizes protrusion and presence, it enables safe and comfortable passage even with high doors. ○ Detailed detection areas can be set while maintaining high density according to the site conditions. 【Ceiling-Mounted Type HA-260】 ○ An industry-first pull-down method provides a flat finish for ceiling-mounted sensors that do not compromise the aesthetics of the building. ○ The detection area achieves a wide coverage with high density of 72 detection spots! ◎ For more details, please contact us or download the catalog.

In facilities operating nurse call systems, we have made bed exit sensors wireless, allowing them to notify in conjunction with the nurse call system. By simply connecting the mat sensor "Foldable Thin Matt-kun," the body movement call "Ugo-kun," and the wheelchair body movement call "Ayumi-chan" to the transmitter HB-RS, you can make the bed exit sensor wireless. The infrared sensor "Just Place Pole-kun" has the transmitter HB-RS built-in. This helps prevent accidents caused by falls, slips, or wandering, contributing to the efficiency of medical operations. 【Features】 ○ Wireless conversion by simply connecting existing sensors to the transmitter HB-WSK. ○ Bed exit sensors notify wirelessly in conjunction with the nurse call system. ○ Up to 5 transmitters can be registered with one receiver. ○ The communication distance between the transmitter and receiver is approximately 10 meters. ◎ For more details, please contact us or download the catalog.

On February 24 (Tuesday), the Japan Meteorological Agency announced its three-month forecast for March to May. In the vicinity of Japan, the upper-level westerlies are expected to flow more to the north than usual, making it likely to be covered by warm air. As a result, above-average temperatures are predicted for March and April in regions excluding Okinawa and Amami, and nationwide in May. With an increase in warm days, there may also be days when it feels hot enough to sweat during the daytime. On sunny days, ultraviolet rays are likely to be strong, so please take precautions such as wearing hats and using sunscreen. For more details, please visit our website.

We held the "2nd World Model and Its Surroundings" online, hosted by our company. This time, Mr. Ishii presented the latest paper by LeCun, the proponent of the world model, and our representative, Mr. Omasa, presented the DiWA model. After the presentations, various questions were raised by the participants, leading to discussions on the architecture of the world model, the latest trends, and the potential applications of the world model in 3D representation and future predictions.
