Imaging Innovation
The highlights of the new imaging innovations are being demonstrated at Canon EXPO 2010 Paris, 12 – 14 October, and include:
- In the New Perspective of Imaging zone, Canon’s imaging technologies will give visitors a unique view into the power of image by allowing them to see images in a way they could not have seen before – making the invisible, visible
- Multi-purpose camera – a compact and lightweight camera which supports both video and still image capture with ultra-high definition 4K resolution. Suitable for both work and professional use it features a newly developed CMOS sensor that enables video shooting at high frame rates in excess of 60 frames per second
- Interactive mixed reality – Combining the real and virtual worlds in real-time, creating a visual experience in which users can not only “see” images in a visual space, but also control and create them. Canon’s Mixed Reality concept system uses a head-mounted display with built-in cameras and a computer which processes video to blend real and virtual realities
- Medical imaging – a range of new imaging innovations, from Canon’s first fully integrated low-dose digital radiography system, to eyecare imaging solutions that enable healthcare professionals to visualise the retina in 3D for quicker and more accurate diagnosis for patients.
“Canon EXPO 2010 Paris is an exciting demonstration of Canon’s vision for the way in which people incorporate imaging technology into both their personal and working lives,” said Mr Ryoichi Bamba, President and CEO, Canon Europe, Middle East and Africa. “Imaging innovation is at the heart of Canon’s business strategy and today we have brought together Canon’s present and future visions for the industry, showcasing the power of image”.
