MER2-502-79U3M-HS POL
Mercury second-generation 5-megapixel USB3.0 interface polarized camera
The Mercury II camera has a compact structure, a small appearance (29 × 29mm), and is equipped with excellent image processing (ISP) algorithms, providing multiple acquisition methods. The MER2-502-79U3M-HS POL camera uses a globally exposed Sony IMX250 MZR CMOS polarization sensor chip, which simultaneously captures images from four different light directions. It can detect reflective surfaces such as glass and metal that are difficult for monochrome and color cameras to detect. The camera transmits image data through USB 3.0 data interface and integrates I/O (GPIO) interface, providing cable locking device. It can work stably in various harsh environments and is a highly reliable industrial digital camera product.
