Key Benefits
- 1920x1080 Full HD resolution at 30 frames per second for clear inspection and documentation
- USB2.0, VGA, and SD card outputs allow flexible connection to monitors, recorders, or storage devices
- On-board image adjustments via mouse control include exposure, flicker restraint, acutance, gamma, and Cb/Cr gain
- Built-in crosshair and 8 sets of grid lines support alignment and measurement tasks
- Supports dynamic contrast and SD card formatting for consistent image quality and data management
- Compact size and 0.3kg weight allow easy mounting on microscope stands or inspection rigs
Application Scenarios
- Industrial inspection of PCBs, SMD components, and microelectronics with real-time image capture
- Quality control in manufacturing lines where images must be saved to SD card or sent via USB
- Automated inspection setups using crosshairs and grid lines for alignment and repeatability
- Documentation of defects or assembly steps with on-board image preview and capture
- Use in bench-level inspection where a monitor displays the image while the camera remains mounted
Who It Is For
- Electronics manufacturers doing PCB and SMD inspection
- Quality assurance teams requiring image capture for audit trails
- Industrial inspection technicians integrating cameras into existing microscope systems
- Manufacturers using automated visual inspection with grid-based alignment
- Laboratories needing a compact, low-power camera for routine visual checks
Problems It Solves
- A fixed camera without on-board adjustment forces the operator to rely on software for brightness and contrast
- Lack of SD card support in some cameras means inspection data must be transferred via computer
- No crosshair or grid lines in basic cameras makes alignment and measurement difficult
- Low-resolution cameras fail to capture fine solder joints or surface defects clearly
- Separate power supply and data cables increase setup complexity; this camera uses a single DC-12V/1A input
Technical Features
- 1/3" sensor size with 2.75μm x 2.75μm pixel size for high-resolution imaging
- Full HD resolution of 1920x1080 at 30 frames per second
- Output via VGA, SD card, and USB2.0 for multiple connection options
- On-board image adjustment via mouse: brightness, contrast, saturation, white balance, black and white switching, HDR
- Flicker restraint and acutance control for stable image quality under variable lighting
- Gamma and Cb/Cr gain adjustment for fine-tuning image tone and color balance
- Image capture, video recording, image preview, and SD card formatting functions built-in
- Crosshair with adjustable color, line size, and visibility settings
- 8 sets of grid lines, each assignable to a different product or inspection task
- DC-12V/1A power input with integrated power adapter and USB cable included
