Description

A superb and fast workhorse - Tiny in size, low in mass, extremely low power consumption. Resolutions up to 4 Mpix. Perfect basis for customer-specific projects.

The xiQ camera series is highly versatile with a selection of popular and established CMOS sensors.

The ultra-compact form factor, barely larger than the C-mount, combined with micro-B, and flex ribbon connectors make these cameras the perfect fit for various applications, especially for automation and embedded vision systems. Board-level variants enable custom integrations into devices and systems, while taped-glass sensor options minimize interference effects in photonics applications.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are the advantages of using the semi-housed version of the xiQ camera?
The semi-housed version of the xiQ camera comes as a complete camera with a cutout in the housing for flex ribbon connection. It relieves the integrator of the necessity to handle sensitive board level units where sensors and electronics are easily damaged in an integration process. The flat ribbon cable saves valuable z-axis space in cramped environments. Data, power, and IOs all run through this cable making integration a breeze.
What are the features of the xiQ camera?
The xiQ camera features a standardized industrial grade USB interface, unique single PCB layout, lowest power consumption, flexible/programmable GPIO option, USB3 Vision compliant, very compact cameras, and rugged and lightweight aluminum alloy CNC machined housing.
What are the specifications of the xiQ camera?
The xiQ camera has a small 26.4 x 26.4 mm front size, lightweight at 27 g, VGA sensor at 500 fps and 1000 fps at 640 x 400, RGB, monochrome, and NIR enhanced sensors.
What are the supported operating systems and language support for the xiQ camera?
The xiQ camera is supported by Windows 10, Linux, macOS, ARM and various libraries. It also has language support and complies with USB3 Vision standards.
What is the xiQ camera used for?
The xiQ camera is ideal for machine vision, 3D scanning, robotic arms, motion capture, cinematography, entertainment, panorama, OCR/OCV, VR/AR, ANPR/ALPR, UAV/UAS, and LoLa.
