We are launching our e-CAM40_CUMI4682_MOD – 4MP RGB IR MIPI Camera module based on the OmniVision’s OV4682 image sensor.

The OV4682 sensor features a 2-micron OmniBSI-2™ pixel and records 4-megapixel images and video in a 16:9 format at 90 FPS, with a quarter of the pixels dedicated to capturing IR. The OV4682 features a high-speed 4-lane MIPI serial output interface to facilitate the required high data transfer rate.

The OV4682 sensor’s dual RGB and IR capabilities allow it to bring a host of additional features to mobile and machine vision applications, including gesture sensing, depth analysis, iris detection and eye tracking. By combining two capabilities into a single sensor, the OV4682 reduces the total cost for the system while also reducing the space required for multiple sensors.

OmniVision’s OV4682 3D depth sensor is part of the infrared camera used on the popular Project Tango. The 4MP camera data and the IR sensor are combined and the image is processed into 3D mappings of an environment. Watch demo of Project tango at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qe10ExwzCqk

e-CAM40_CUMI4682_MOD – 4MP MIPI IR Camera module is scheduled to be launched by end of June 2015.

e-con Systems and RGB-IR cameras: Latest update

e-con Systems introduces its latest addition to the RGB-IR lineup—the 4K RGB-IR superspeed USB camera, See3CAM_CU83. This innovative camera, based on the AR0830 sensor, provides both RGB and IR images simultaneously, ensuring seamless performance in any lighting conditions, day or night, without the need for mechanical switch filters. With our proprietary RGB-IR Separation algorithm (patent pending), the camera processes RGB and IR frames separately, ensuring clear, precise images with low latency. With the perfect combo of sensor, optics, and ISP, we are confident about addressing several concerns that have been faced by our clients in the medical and life sciences industry.

Our proven track record in advanced customization will also ensure that you no longer have to go through long design lifecycles to design and deploy your high-end MedTech applications.

We hope this blog offered some insights for you to better understand the role of RGB-IR cameras in medical devices. Stay tuned to our social media handles for the latest news on our RGB-IR camera development initiatives.

Hi

Do you have pricing yet on the e-CAM40_CUMI4682_MOD – 4MP RGB IR MIPI camera module?
Also can you tell me if it will record in the lower resolution high frame rate settings of the sensor?

Regards,
Jonathan.

Hi Jonathan,
We are getting 170fps at VGA. We get 200fps @VGA sometimes. However 170fps is consistent.

Dear Sir/Madame,
We are Jinan Micro Smart Co.,LTD. in China. We are very interested in the 4MP color & RAW RGB-IR USB 3.0 camera(OV4682), and want to buy it.
How could we buy it in China? Could we buy it online with international express?What’s the price?
Thanks very much!
Chancen

We already announced End of Life notification for this camera “OV4682”. Currently we do not ship our products to China. Once we expand our shipping wing, we will let you know.
