Frequently Asked Questions

What systems and software are compatible with this USB camera module?

The camera is UVC-compliant, making it plug-and-play with Windows, Linux (including Raspberry Pi OS), and macOS without proprietary drivers. It works seamlessly with standard vision libraries like OpenCV, PyCamera, and MATLAB's Image Acquisition Toolbox for capturing and processing high-resolution video streams in your AI or machine vision applications.

Can the M12 lens on this module be replaced or swapped?

Yes, the module features a standard M12 lens mount, allowing you to unscrew the default 4.2mm F1.6 lens and replace it with other M12-mount lenses. This enables customization of the field of view or focal length for specific applications like macro imaging or wider-angle surveillance, provided the new lens is compatible with the sensor's 1/1.8-inch imaging circle.

What is the maximum frame rate for 4K (3840x2160) video output?

While exact frame rates depend on the host system's USB bandwidth and processing power, the OS08A10 sensor over USB 2.0 typically supports up to 30 frames per second at lower resolutions. For full 8MP/4K output, expect a lower frame rate suitable for high-resolution inspection or capture, rather than high-speed video. For optimal performance, verify frame rates using tools like VLC or guvcview on your specific hardware setup.
