Machine vision cameras require high frame rates, high definition and robustness. However with the recent rapid advancement of image sensor, processing and recognition technology, the need for various connectors has been increasing. This page introduces recommended connectors based on adoption examples from Hirose’s customers.
Adoption Examples
The FH41 Series is used as an interface connector for the embedded vision systems.
The ZX360 Series is used for signal and the HR10A Series is used for power.
Standard Roadmap (Related to Machine Vision Camera)
