Teledyne e2v Introduces Caiman, a Compact Solution for Low Light Imaging

2026-04-21 14:02 Last Updated At:14:10

GRENOBLE, France--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Apr 21, 2026--

Teledyne e2v, a global innovator of imaging solutions, announced the launch of the Caiman™ imaging module, a small, lightweight, low power solution designed for demanding low light applications.

This press release features multimedia. View the full release here: https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20260420658752/en/

Built around the OnyxMax™ sensor, Caiman delivers high quantum efficiency, high spatial resolution in the near-infrared spectral band, and low noise performance providing high sensitivity in low-light conditions (less than 1 mlx). The module integrates image processing features, including automatic exposure control, noise filtering, histogram equalization, and binning, to ensure consistently high image quality.

With its compact form factor and very low power consumption (below 1W), Caiman is designed for extended operation. It also supports high speeds (greater than 120 fps), which reduces overall system latency for smoother real-time visualization. Its MIPI interface enables easy integration into digital vision systems and compatibility with standard System on Chips (SOCs).

These capabilities make Caiman an ideal solution for night vision, surveillance, laser detection, and scientific imaging applications. Its CMOS technology ensures reliable performance in both daytime and nighttime conditions.

Caiman will be showcased at SPIE Defense + Security, National Harbor, Maryland, USA, from April 26 to April 30, 2026. Visit Teledyne at booth 703 or contact us online for more information.

Documentation, samples, and software for evaluation or development are available upon request.

DENVER (AP) — Anthony Edwards scored 30 points, Julius Randle added 24 and the Minnesota Timberwolves rallied past the Denver Nuggets 119-114 on Monday night to tie their Western Conference playoff series at one game apiece.

Denver had won 13 straight since losing on March 18.

Edwards turned the ball over with 31 seconds left and Christian Braun got fouled at the other end, but he missed one of two free throws, leaving Denver trailing 115-114 with 19 seconds remaining.

After a Minnesota timeout, Randle sank two free throws and Donte DiVincenzo added a breakaway dunk to cap the comeback from a 19-point first-quarter deficit.

Jamal Murray scored 30 points and Nikola Jokic had 24 points, 15 rebounds and eight assists. But the Nuggets' All-Star duo shot a combined 2 for 12 in the fourth quarter, managing a measly four points as the Wolves evened a best-of-seven series that shifts to Minneapolis for Game 3 on Thursday night.

Denver blew a chance to take control against its Northwest Division rival. The Nuggets are 8-0 in their history when winning the first two games of a playoff series, and the Wolves are 0-8 when dropping Games 1 and 2.

Murray sank a 51-foot 3-pointer at the halftime buzzer to tie it at 64. Jokic came on strong after a quiet start, scoring 16 points in the third quarter when the Nuggets took a 93-90 lead.

Edwards looked much better than he did during his 22-point effort in Game 1, when his rust from a bum knee was apparent. This time, he drove to the basket more instead of settling for jumpers.

Minnesota, which outscored Denver 20-3 in second-chance points, rallied from an early 19-point deficit and surged to a 64-56 lead only to watch the Nuggets score the last eight points of the first half.

Murray, who missed all eight of his 3-pointers in the series opener, started things off Monday night with a 3 and was 5 for 7 from deep before halftime. In the first quarter, he had a pair of four-point plays, fouled both times by Ayo Dosunmu.

Before tipoff, Wolves coach Chris Finch complained for a third straight day about the free-throw disparity in Game 1, when the Nuggets outscored Minnesota 30-14 from the stripe. He cracked that maybe his players need to “start flopping, too.”

Nuggets coach David Adelman pointed out that some of Murray’s 16 free throws — he made all of them — were because of flagrant and technical fouls by Minnesota in a particularly physical Game 1.

The Wolves, despite their coach's umbrage, settled for jumpers early on in Game 2 and were whistled for 11 fouls to Denver's four in the first quarter, when the Nuggets surged to a 44-25 lead.

Led by Edwards, they starting getting to the rim and that's what fueled their comeback.

Both teams shot 30 free throws this time, with the Wolves making 19 and Denver 23.
