A leading supplier to the micro-electronics industry has introduced new technology for cleaning image sensors.
Eco-Snow Systems, an affiliate of The Linde Group, has introduced the Eco-Snow Precision Clean 1000; a device which uses CO2 snow to clean the sensors used in camera phones, and PC, video and still cameras.
During the manufacturing process for the sensors, microscopic particles can settle on the lens, causing the picture quality to deteriorate.
This problem has been made more apparent through technological advances; as pixel size continues to decrease in order to achieve higher image resolution, the size of problematic particles on lenses also continues to shrink.
