SEVILLE, Spain--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Sep 22, 2026--
Teledyne e2v, a Teledyne Technologies (NYSE:TDY) company and global innovator of imaging solutions, today announced Nexora™, a new family of CMOS image sensors that delivers high sensitivity, high-speed imaging and low power consumption for demanding machine vision applications.

Available in 12 MP (4,096 by 3,072) and 16 MP (4,096 by 4,096) resolutions, in both monochrome and color versions, Nexora is designed for applications that require sharp images at very high speeds. These include high-resolution machine vision, intelligent traffic systems, and outdoor surveillance.
At the heart of Nexora is Teledyne e2v’s proprietary backside-illuminated (BSI) pixel technology. By positioning the photodiode closer to the incoming light and maximizing the light-sensitive area of each pixel, the sensor achieves higher light-collection efficiency than conventional front-side illuminated (FSI) architectures. This results in quantum efficiency (QE) of up to 73% at 550 nm and 15% at 940 nm, improving performance in challenging lighting conditions and near-infrared applications.
The Nexora family also features Teledyne e2v’s 3D-stacked sensor architecture, which integrates multiple functions within a compact, multilayer structure. This approach increases design flexibility while helping camera manufacturers develop smaller, higher-performance imaging systems.
Nexora incorporates a versatile LVDS interface that is compatible with a wide range of FPGAs and image signal processors. It is housed in a compact 23 by 21.5 mm package that is compatible with 29 by 29 mm² cameras and standard C-mount optics.
Rafael Romay, President of Teledyne Vision Solutions, said: “With Nexora, we focused on giving camera manufacturers a new platform that balances image quality, speed and integration simplicity. The result is a sensor family that can support a wide range of current and emerging machine vision applications.”

GOTHENBURG, Sweden & SUNNYVALE, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Sep 22, 2026--
Accenture (NYSE: ACN) and Google Cloud today announced that Volvo Cars has become the lead industry partner for Horizon, an open-source software development platform that helps car makers and automotive suppliers build, test, and deploy software for Android Automotive Operating System (AAOS) more efficiently.
This press release features multimedia. View the full release here: https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20260921777209/en/
Horizon brings together cloud-native development tools, virtual testing environments, and AI-assisted workflows into a unified platform. This helps car makers and automotive suppliers develop and deliver high-quality software at speed and make engineering more productive.
As Horizon's lead industry partner, Volvo Cars is migrating its global AAOS software development environment to the Horizon platform. The platform will give its engineers access to faster development workflows, virtual testing environments and AI-assisted software development tools, freeing engineering teams to spend more time building in-car experiences.
“We’re building some of the most complex products in the world, which requires a development environment built to match,” said Gregor Zetsche, Head of Connected Experience at Volvo Cars. “As Horizon’s lead industry partner, we can directly solve our toughest engineering challenges and empower our teams to deliver new experiences faster than ever."
Volvo Cars is the lead car maker working with Accenture and Google Cloud to bring the Horizon platform to the industry. Insights from this collaboration will help refine the platform and expand its generative AI capabilities for automotive companies and other industrial manufacturers.
Accelerating connected software development
Modern vehicles increasingly offer digital experiences, such as navigation, media, voice assistants, connected services and over-the-air software updates. As consumers expect these experiences to become richer and more sophisticated throughout a vehicle's lifetime, manufacturers need faster and more efficient ways to build, test, and validate the software that enables improvements at scale.
For car makers and the wider automotive industry, the Horizon platform addresses these challenges by offering:
"Horizon enables a faster, more flexible and efficient way to deliver software-defined vehicle features. Its standardized, repeatable and scalable processes help deliver reliable, high-quality software products, while significantly reducing time to market,” said Juergen Reers, Global Automotive & Mobility Lead, Accenture. “Horizon will allow Volvo Cars’ engineers to focus on what matters most: creating differentiated vehicle experiences and continuously delivering new value to drivers through software at high speed.”
“Software now defines the automotive brand,” said Henry Bzeih, Global Director, Automotive Industry, Google Cloud. “Horizon on Google Cloud gives Volvo Cars the ability to move faster while releasing high-quality software and features on a cadence that matches the expectations of modern mobility. This is how next generation digital experiences reach drivers at agile speed.”
Accenture and Google Cloud, with Volvo Cars as leading industry partner, are already working with other automotive and industrial organizations to extend the reach of Horizon into further companies and markets.
