The transition of video surveillance from analog CCTV to digital video cameras has been driven both by technology advances and the need for increased security in vertical market segments, such as government and transportation, and now in the home.  The high resolution capabilities coupled with on-board analytics enables real time analysis of content.  The advent of cloud connectivity enables streaming of high resolution content in a secure fashion, allowing remote viewing, recording, and management. Surveillance cameras are also utilized for marketing and measurement purposes; collecting data such as the number of people in an area and profiling them, tailoring retail services based on recognition and identification of individuals, etc.

ON Semiconductor is an established leader in industrial imaging with a portfolio ranging from VGA to 28 MP, supporting optical formats from 1/11” to 1”.  The high performance CCD/CIS portfolio includes a leadership family of CIS Global Shutter sensors.  We are the inventors of CMOS imaging with over 2000 patents and over 2 billion sensors shipped.  The accompanying Image Signal Processor (ISP) allows delivery of complete imaging system solutions, including world class software.

Our highly complementary sensor portfolio includes motion detection and environmental sensing.  Coupled with wired and wireless connectivity options and industry leading products in efficient energy management, ON Semiconductor can deliver comprehensive solutions for security and surveillance.

These same innovations in semiconductors, sensors, and the associated imaging platforms are now evolving into new devices such as drones.  Fundamentally video driven and utilizing at least 1-2 cameras, they offer a whole new world of possibilities for security and surveillance.  Our broad portfolio of sensors, motor control, connectivity and energy management products are once more ideally suited to deliver comprehensive solutions.
