CMOS USB Camera

Lumenera Corp., Ottawa, ON, Canada, offers the Lm085 mini CMOS USB 2.0 camera for industrial applications with high-contrast-light scenes, tight space constraints, and rugged environmental conditions. The camera can be used in areas with variable lighting conditions and provides a dynamic range of 100 dB. It features a form factor of 44 × 44 × 56 mm, an electronic global shutter that eliminates the smear effect generated by moving objects, and a locking mini USB and RJ45 GPIO connectors that keep cables attached to the camera back plate.

It provides 60 fps at full 752 × 480 resolution, and over 100 fps at 376 × 240 binning mode. Uncompressed images in live streaming video and still image capture are provided across a mini USB 2.0 digital interface. Hardware- and software-based synchronization trigger is provided standard, and 32 MB of on-board memory is available for frame buffering.
