Orlaco highlights its EMOS shock-resistant ethernet camera with a 100 Mb/s connection. The images produced by the EMOS are for all intents and purposes displayed in real time, the company says. The camera is also suitable for use in extreme conditions, according to the company.

Highlights of the camera, described by the company, include:

• The camera’s maximum latency is 48 ms at 30 FPS, and 31 ms at 60 FPS. In combination with a common hardware processing platform, such as the IMX6 or ARM, the total latency of the camera-monitor system is less than 100 ms.
• The EMOS carries CMOS chip technology and contains integrated corrections, such as automatic white balance, photometric and geometric lens correction, mirror imaging and the ability to rotate images 180°. Users are assured of crystal clear images with a maximum camera output of 60 FPS at 720p SDR to 43 FPS at 960p HDR. Thanks to the sensor’s high degree of light sensitivity (0.05 Lux), the EMOS also offers superb night vision.
• The camera is shock-resistant (50 G), vibration-resistant (15 GRMS at a frequency of 24 – 2,000 Hz) and can handle temperatures from -40 to +85ºC. The EMOS has an aluminum housing with 2k moulding and is completely waterproof (IP68/IP69k).
• The EMOS is connected using a M12 D-coded connector for data. A shielded cable with sprayed-on connector provides excellent EMC performance (100V/m). The camera can be directly connected to the vehicle’s power supply (8 – 32 Volts) and the power supply is protected from peak voltage, overvoltage, jump starts, spikes and ripples.
• The camera is able to stream MJPEG or H.264. The ISO17215 protocol is used to communicate with the camera. This includes setting the resolution, mirroring the image and starting/stopping streaming. For extra safety and ease of use, it is also possible to display overlays (text, arc, line, image and safety ticker) as desired.
