A method for making a detection device (2) for detecting a position of a movable rod (4) of a pneumatic actuator (1) comprises a step of taking a first body (17) comprising a connecting portion (19), a supporting portion (20), an electrical connector (21), a detection sensor (15) for detecting a magnetic field and electrical connecting means (22). The method then comprises a step of taking a second body (18) comprising a housing (14) in which the supporting portion (20) can be inserted, a step of inserting the supporting portion (20) and the detection sensor (15) positioned on it in the housing (14) and a step of irremovably constraining the first body (17) to the second body (18). The first body (17) and the second body (18) comprise, one at least one projecting element (25) and the other at least one corresponding hole (26); during the insertion step the projecting element (25) is inserted in the hole (26). During the constraining step the first body (17) is irremovably constrained to the second body (18) by plastically deforming the projecting element (25) to prevent it from being extracted from the hole (26) in which it is inserted.

Aspects relate to a prism array camera having a wide field of view. For example, the prism array camera can use a central refractive prism, for example with multiple surfaces or facets, to split incoming light comprising the target image into multiple portions for capture by the sensors in the array. The prism can have a refractive index of approximately 1.5 or higher, and can be shaped and positioned to reduce chromatic aberration artifacts and increase the FOV of a sensor. In some examples a negative lens can be incorporated into or attached to a camera-facing surface of the prism to further increase the FOV.
