DFM 25GP031-ML Color Board Camera
The Imaging Source "25" Series GigE Board Camera

Only 45×45×20 mm
Lens & holder not included

The Imaging Source DFM 25GP031-ML color camera has a GigE interface and is the perfect solution formany industrial automation, quality assurance, security, surveillance and medical applications. The color
camera ships with the very sensitive 1/2.5 inch Aptina CMOS MT9P031 sensor. With up to 15 images per second,the DFM 25GP031-ML is a low cost, yet highly versatile imaging solution. The optional lens holders in various lengths,
makes the camera compatible to M12 board lenses. Using the optional C and CS mount lens holder, the camera is also
compatible to C and CS mount lenses.
The Imaging Source authors and supports drivers, SDKs, extensions and end-user software for Microsoft Windows, which can be freely
downloaded from our web site. Extensions for Microsoft Windows enable the DFM 25GP031-ML to be integrated in to common
machine vision software libraries, such as LabView and OpenCV. Furthermore, we author and support open source Linux drivers andsoftware (Apache License 2.0) to integrate the camera into popular distributions. Download the Linux source code at GitHub.
