e-con Systems™, a leading embedded camera company, launches See3CAM_CU135M, a 13MP high-resolution monochrome USB 3.1 Gen 1 camera with superior sensitivity.
Systems is an embedded vision company specialized in designing, developing, and supplying camera solutions for industries such as retail, medical, industrial, agriculture, etc. The latest addition in its portfolio is See3CAM_135M, a monochrome USB camera.
See3CAM_CU135M is based on the 1/3.2-inch AR1335 monochrome CMOS image sensor from Onsemi® with advanced 1.1µm pixel BSI technology. This camera comes with the auto exposure feature allowing it to easily adjust to changing lighting conditions. Absence of color filter arrays in this 4K monochrome camera results in higher quantum efficiency in both visible and NIR regions compared to cameras with RGB color filters. This high quantum efficiency helps to capture images with less noise using See3CAM_CU135M in all lighting conditions. Also, this camera comes with the 2x2 and 4x4 pixel binning feature that helps to enhance its sensitivity.
Further, See3CAM_CU135M is a high-resolution camera with a resolution of 13MP. This helps to capture images with great details, which is a critical feature in microscopic applications. This
4K monochrome camera streams video data in Full HD @ 60 fps & 4K @ 30 fps with output formats of Y8 and Y16. Also, it has an S-mount lens holder which allows customers to choose and use their own optics.
Key features of See3CAM_CU135M
- Monochrome camera: Absence of color filter arrays helps to capture images with less noise.
- M12 lens holder: Fixed focus and liquid lens auto focus support
- USB 3.1 Gen 1 interface: Compatible with Windows and Linux operating systems, and Industrial PCs.
- 2x2 and 4x4 image binning: Enhanced sensitivity
High sensitivity in both visible and NIR regions, image binning capability, ability to capture minuscule details, and low noise capabilities make this camera an ideal fit for applications such as digital microscope, automatic number plate recognition, and quality inspection.
STURDeCAM25
e-con Systems has launched STURDeCAM25, a Full HD GMSL2 color global shutter camera with an IP67 enclosure that ensures protection from dust and water.
STURDeCAM25 is the latest introduction in e-con Systems’ STURDeCAM series characterized by products with IP rated rugged enclosures.
STURDeCAM25 is a multi-camera solution based on the AR0234CS sensor from ON Semiconductor®, with the ability to integrate up to 6 cameras. It comes with an onboard Image Signal Processor (ISP) which is tuned to achieve the best quality image output from the sensor. The global shutter efficiency of this camera helps to capture sharp images of moving objects without any shutter artifacts. Its large pixel size of 3.0µm and high Signal to Noise Ratio (SNR) help in producing exceptionally clear and sharp images with less noise even in challenging lighting conditions. The IP67 enclosure of this camera makes it suitable for use in harsh industrial conditions by protecting it from water, dust, temperature variations, as well as shocks and vibrations.
STURDeCAM25 also comes with the GMSL2 interface making it possible to reliably transmit video data using coaxial cables up to a distance of 15 meters with very low latency. Further, this camera is capable of streaming uncompressed video data at 120 frames per second which helps to reduce motion blur.
Key features of STURDeCAM25
- IP67 enclosure - Ruggedness to withstand dust and water and has antifogging capability
- Global shutter - Sharp images of moving objects without shutter artifacts
- GMSL2 interface - Transmission of video data up to a distance of 15 meters with low latency
- Large Pixel size & High SNR - Sharp images with less noise even in low lighting conditions
- 720p@120fps & FullHD@65fps - High-quality streaming of uncompressed video data with reduced motion blur
- Multi-camera synchronization support – suitable for 3D vision and depth mapping functionalities along with 360 degree view.
A combination of color global shutter, IP67 enclosure, GMSL2 interface, multi-synchronization support, and high-performance ISP makes this camera suitable for smart traffic systems, robotic arms, patrol robots, delivery robots, goods-to-person robots, agricultural trucks, and agricultural robots.
This synchronized multi-camera solution comes with the ability to integrate upto six STURDeCAM25 cameras into a single Jetson system. The multi-camera system offers 3D vision, depth mapping, and 360 degree view capabilities for proximity & obstacle detection.
Designed and developed to work seamlessly with the NVIDIA platform, STURDeCAM25 has off-the-shelf support for the Jetson development kit and Connect Tech’s Rogue platform based on Jetson AGX Xavier, Rudi AGX platform based on Jetson AGX Xavier, and Rudi NX platform based on Jetson Xavier NX. This enables rapid prototyping and faster deployment of vision enabled products.
