CCD Image Sensors Industry Overview
The CCD Image Sensors Market is very competitive in nature. The market is highly concentrated due to various small and large players. All the major players account for a significant market share and focus on expanding their consumer base worldwide. Some of the significant players in the market are On Semiconductor Components Industries, LLC, Hamamatsu Photonics K.K., Teledyne e2v (Teledyne Imaging), Sharp Corporation, Stemmer Imaging AG, Oxford Instruments, and many more.
In April 2021, Teledyne e2v, a part of the Teledyne Technologies company and Teledyne Imaging Group, was contracted by the ESA (European Space Agency) to develop an improvised version of the previously supplied CCD69 detector or sensor. Utilizing the experience and data from the ESA Aeolus mission, hosting the first Doppler Wind Lidar in space, Teledyne e2v will further enhance the performance and sensitivity of the ultraviolet detector that could ultimately be deployed in the next-generation space-based Doppler Wind Lidar instruments.
In February 2021, Teledyne commended the NASA group on the successful landing of the mars rover perseverance. The company sensors will sense, power, and help analyze the chemical composition of the minerals and surface during the Mars 2020 mission. Teledyne provided CCD image sensors to drive the SuperCam and Scanning Habitable Environments with the Raman and Luminescence for Organics & Chemicals (SHERLOC). These instruments search for the minerals and organic compounds, determining if they have been altered by the watery environments and prove signs of previous microbial life on the planet.
