The Imaging Source DMM 36SX676-ML Monochrome MIPI CSI-2 Board Camera

Highlights

The Imaging Source DMM 36SX676-ML Monochrome MIPI CSI-2 Board Camera is a compact 12.5 MP embedded vision camera built around the Sony IMX676 STARVIS 2 CMOS sensor. It captures square-format 3,536 × 3,536 monochrome images at up to 60 fps with 2.0 µm pixels and a rolling shutter.

Designed for compact embedded and OEM vision systems, the camera uses a 22-pin MIPI CSI-2 FFC interface compatible with NVIDIA Orin, NXP i.MX 8M Plus and Raspberry Pi 5 platforms. Its 30 × 30 × 6 mm board-level design, 4 g mass and optional M12x0.5 lens mount support integration into high-resolution embedded imaging systems.
