USB2 UVC Camera IMX900

VA-UVC-3MP-100U2C is a 3MP industrial UVC camera equipped with the Sony IMX900 CMOS image sensor. With a maximum resolution of 2048 x 1536 at 100fps, this UVC camera delivers high-speed image capture in compact and robust industrial housing.

Thanks to its USB2.0 interface and full UVC compliance, the camera offers true plug-and-play functionality on Windows, Linux, Android and macOS systems without requiring installation of additional drivers. This makes the 3MP UVC camera particularly suitable for OEM projects, embedded vision systems and machine vision applications where high frame rate performance and straightforward integration are required.

The sensor has a pixel size of 2.25 x 2.25μm and uses a global shutter. The USB-C connector ensures a reliable connection and whilst standard a non-locking 1-meter USB-A to USB-C cable is included with every camera. A locking USB cable is available as an option. This model is particularly suitable when your application requires:

• An industrial USB2 UVC camera for OEM or embedded integration
• A global shutter camera for moving objects and fast processes
• A compact design with C/CS-mount flexibility
• A single USB connection for both power and data
