Intelligent Camera Module KBCR-iC41MG: Shikino High-Tech from Japan is an expert in camera modules and IP core for image processing. Founded in 1987 Shikino developed equipment for testing semiconductors. Shikino’ camera division was founded two decades ago in 2004.
Since then a lot of innovative camera modules were built to customer needs – now with AI functions.
The KBCR-iC41MG is based on an ¼” rolling shutter color sensor with 1.2M Pixels with up to 30 fps. Its image resolution is 1280 x 960 pixels in YUV color. The sensor supports HDR and of course exposure and gain control. White balance auto adjustment and a lot more various picture adjustment functions are available in software.
This camera module adopts the Renesas’ RZ/V2L Series as a processor to enable AI functions to process the image data right on the module. With its small mechanical footprint of 50 mm x 50 mm it can be integrated in lots of applications.
The camera comes with an integrated 16 Gbyte eMMC flash for the customer’s application & AI models.
UART, USB 2.0 (OTG), and control of additional functions via GPIO are offered as direct interfaces. SPI, I²C, I²S, SDIO, and RGMII can also be used with extensions. The module operates in a temperature range from -20 °C to +60 °C.
There are several application examples like the counting of persons being visible, gesture recognition, vacant car parking space or more specific application like the detection if people have fallen to the ground or not.
Due to their long product customization experience Shikino High-Tech can support your application with the support for your camera based application design and consult on the best fit in available lens options and the choice of host interface like USB, Ethernet, Wi-Fi, LTE and more.
