Spec

What is xiC?

The xiC camera line is highly versatile with a wide range of the most modern global shutter CMOS sensors up to 24.5 Mpix in resolution.
The ultra-compact form factor, barely larger than the C-mount, combined with micro-B, type-C, and flex ribbon connectors make these cameras the perfect fit for various applications, especially for automation and embedded vision systems.
For the same form-factor and sensor options, but increased bandwidth of 10 Gbit/s resulting in doubled frame rates, there is the xiX family.
