Exwave HADTM
(SSC-DC50A/54A/330/334,
SPT-M320/M324)
In monitoring and surveillance applications, camera sensitivity is
one of the most important factors in obtaining an adequate
picture in low light conditions.
The sensitivity of Sony cameras using the Exwave
HAD technology is well over twice that of the cameras using the
Sony Hyper HAD technology. The Hyper HAD sensor structure
has an OCL (on chip lens) located over each pixel. The result is
that light is concentrated on the photosensor areas and the
sensitivity of the camera is improved. The Exwave HAD takes the
Hyper HAD technology a giant step further. The OCL of the
Exwave HAD is a nearly gap-less structure, eliminating the
ineffective areas between the microlenses. This enables the hole
accumulated layer to receive the maximum amount of light.
Moreover, the smear level of the Exwave HAD technology is
reduced to 1/50th that of the Hyper HAD technology.
This leakage is dramatically reduced because the improvement of
the unit cell structure minimizes the unnecessary reflection of the
light onto the CCD surface.

Smart Control
(SSC-DC10/14/50A/54A and SSC-CX34)
Strong backlighting can often cause the subject of the picture to
be cast into shadow. To overcome this problem, Smart Control
achieves the optimum balance between Iris and Gain settings in
a unified digital signal processing circuit. As a result, clear color
images can be obtained even under severe or varying lighting
conditions. Smart control also works intelligently as it employs
average light metering to detect the position of the major subject,
and Fuzzy Logic to calculate the proper exposure.

Monitor technology
Trinitron®CRT
Sony incorporates Trinitron CRTs in all of its surveillance color
monitors.With its completely original design, the Trinitron
technology allows for high resolution and the best possible
picture reproduction. The completely flat, straight vertical surface
of the Trinitron CRT provides the lowest purity imperfection
available with the CRT technologies of today. Moreover, Sony
manufactures its own CRTs to assure quality performance in all of
its monitors.

Time-lapse
recording technologies

RealAction recording 20 fields/sec.
Normal time-lapse recording 5 fields/sec.
Hard Disk Drive
<HSR Recording Process>
Time-lapse
recording technologies
Hybrid Recording (HSR-1/2)
The Sony HSR-1/2 digital time-lapse recorder uses both a hard
disk drive (HDD) and a DV (digital video) tape drive for storage.
The image data is first recorded onto the HDD and is then
transferred to DV tape. This "hybrid" approach to recording has
two major advantages.
The first advantage is reduced maintenance. Because the
DV tape drive works only while recording the image data being
transferred from the HDD, the tape transport and heads are
stationary most of the time.
This significantly reduces the need for head maintenance.
The second advantage is multiple protection. In the unlikely
event that the DV tape drive fails, recording continues onto the
HDD. Conversely, if the HDD fails, recording continues on the
DV tape.
RealAction Recording
(SVT-168E/40E/LC300/DL224/S480ES)
Five Sony time lapse VCRs feature RealAction high density
recording. For example, conventional time lapse VCRs record
only 5 fields per second in 24 hour recording mode. However,
Sony RealAction technology allows recording of 20 fields per
second - three times as much information. This recording
density ensures smooth, natural recording of even fast moving
objects.

Reality Regenerator (R2)
(SVT-168/168E/40E/S480ES)
The Reality Regenerator improves on conventional sharpness
enhancing techniques that artificially increase the apparent
sharpness of edges but at the same time also increases noise -
a combination which can result in unnatural, noisy pictures.
The Reality Regenerator minimizes these side effects by
reproducing a video signal very similar to the original. This is
achieved by first detecting edge information in the playback
signal and separating it into three parts (right, left and center),
and then adding this new signal to the original playback signal.
The result is very little noise and more accurate picture
reproduction during playback.
