streams FULL HD (1920 x 1080) at 60fps and HD (1280 x 720) at 60fps in both uncompressed(UYVY) and compressed MJPEG formats. e-con Systems launched the AR0330 (3.4MP) based
Fixed Focus camera couple of years before. This camera has exactly same pixel size but comeswith 5MP and higher Signal to Noise Ratio (SNR) 40 dbm. So, it will be much better in low light withlesser noise.
See3CAM_CU55 is ideal for customer applications where high resolution 5MP still images or FullHD video @ 60 fps are required. With S-mount lens holder, the See3CAM_CU55 is ideal for Smart
Surveillance, Medical applications such as digital microscopy, Document Scanning cameras,
Optical Character Recognition applications, smart parking lot management applications, highresolution Microscopic/Magnification applications, Drones etc. The See3CAM_CU55 also highlysuitable for high resolution video streaming, video conferencing and surveillance applications. Its
humongous ultralow light sensitivity, excellent image quality with less noise will make it stand apartfrom other cameras.
