The newly launched See3CAM_CU83 4K RGB-IR camera offers unparalleled versatility, making it an ideal choice for applications such as precision agriculture and minimally invasive surgeries. Supply: e-con Methods.
e-con Methods Inc. Final week unveiled its latest innovation, the See3CAM_CU83 – a cutting-edge 4K superspeed USB digital camera boasting On Semiconductor’s AR0830 sensor for unparalleled image quality. The latest See3CAM, an RGB-IR digital camera, promises versatility by offering efficient solutions for a range of applications, including biometric access control, in-cabin surveillance, agricultural health monitoring, image-guided surgeries, and intelligent patient monitoring, according to the company.
“E-con Systems’ See3CAM_CU83 marks a significant achievement in our digital camera portfolio,” said Prabhu Kumar, Head of the Digital Camera Options Unit, acknowledging the milestone. “With more than two decades of experience in embedded vision, e-con Systems has developed multiple patents.”
The camera utilizes a proprietary algorithm developed by e-con to process RGB-IR frame data from its single sensor, separating it into distinct RGB and IR frames for enhanced functionality. “The digicam’s ability to simultaneously capture visible and infrared light using its twin band-pass optical system enables seamless operation in both daylight and nighttime modes, making it suitable for a wide range of vision applications.”
e-con’s comprehensive product portfolio encompasses a diverse range of solutions, including ToF cameras, MIPI digicam modules, GMSL cameras, USB 3.1 Gen 1 cameras, stereo cameras, GigE cameras, and cutting-edge low-light cameras. The Riverside, California-based company has also released its 3MP and 5MP world shutter cameras for basketball posture evaluation and precision purposes, respectively.
See3CAM_CU83 eliminates sensors, filters
“E-con Systems announces a groundbreaking innovation in the industry with its See3CAM_CU83 unit, capable of simultaneously streaming RGB-IR frames and capturing high-quality 4K images in both visible and infrared lighting conditions.”
By separating visible light and infrared frames, the technology eliminates the need for distinct RGB and IR sensors, according to its supplier. The e-con system successfully transmits precise images with rapid response times while offering a cost-effective solution.
The digicam’s reliability is further enhanced by the absence of mechanical shutter mechanisms, which adds to its overall performance. E-con, a pioneer in picture signal processing (ISP) fine-tuning, enables See3CAM to deliver exceptional high-resolution images.
“By seamlessly integrating our AR0830 sensor into See3CAM_CU83, a 4K RGB-IR superspeed USB camera, and combining it with their proprietary RGB-IR separation algorithm, e-con Systems has successfully developed a comprehensive camera system capable of extensive deployment across both visible and Near-Infrared spectrums,” said Steve Harris, senior director of sales in e-con’s Industrial and Business Sensing Division. “This solution enables exceptional efficiency and colouration accuracy across a wide range of embedded computer vision applications.”
Digital solutions pioneer e-con Methods tackles complex, forward-thinking challenges across diverse sectors.
e-con Systems has announced that its See3CAM_CU83 camera module addresses key challenges in embedded computer vision applications across multiple industries,
- RGB-IR technology can significantly enhance biometric accuracy by effectively distinguishing between genuine users and spoof attempts, according to the company. This ensures comprehensive safety measures are in place for seamless facility entry, effective attendance management, and robust high-security environments.
- RGB-based infrared (RGB-IR) performance ensures crystal-clear video display in a range of moderate environmental conditions for both driver and passenger monitoring, as defined by electronic communication standards. The integration of 4K resolution significantly boosts the performance of advanced laptop vision systems, allowing for the seamless execution of applications such as drowsiness detection and cabin occupancy monitoring. Moreover, the wake-on-motion feature enables the camera to respond swiftly and efficiently, leveraging its power-saving capabilities, according to the statement.
- Twin RGB and infrared imagery can effectively capture near-infrared spectral data, thereby uncovering key crop health indicators such as chlorophyll content and water status. By monitoring this, early detection of crop misery, illnesses, and pest infestations is facilitated, enabling targeted interventions to mitigate the impact.
- Infrared (IR) imaging technology has the potential to provide surgeons with a wealth of additional visual information and real-time data beyond what is typically available in the visible spectrum. IR imaging enables precise differentiation between healthy and diseased tissue, enhances the visualisation of blood vessels and facilitates accurate tumour identification during complex surgical interventions.
- The latest See3CAM camera seamlessly captures both visible and infrared light, ensuring crystal-clear images even in challenging low-light environments, thereby boosting the precision of patient monitoring applications. This facilitates timely identification of vital corrections in posture, aligning with cutting-edge innovations.
