Lumenera’s Lw160R and Lw165R megapixel cameras are designed for use in a wide variety of applications, particularly in low-light conditions and where high dynamic range and very low noise are required.
Superior Sensitivity
Equipped with a high quality Sony ICX285 CCD sensor, the Lw160R and Lw165R cameras have the unmatched light sensitivity needed for low light applications. Superior performance is achieved through low noise electronics, high grade components and Lumenera’s unique thermal management techniques. With an extremely high dynamic range and large 6.45 μm square pixels, this camera is an excellent choice for lightchallenged applications.
Live Stream and Still Image Capturing
Uncompressed images in live streaming video and still image capture are provided across a USB 2.0 digital interface. No framegrabber is required. Advanced camera control is available through a comprehensive Software Developer’s Kit, with numerous sample applications and associated source code available to quickly integrate camera functions into OEM applications.
Customization
Camera models are offered in both enclosed (Lw165R) and board-level (Lw160R) form. Custom form factor (sizes) as well as monochrome camera models are available. Take advantage of Lumenera’s engineering expertise to make any other software or hardware customizations required for unique applications.
