Tamron, an integrated optics manufacturer and leader in the security/surveillance equipment industry, announces the release of an Ultra-Compact Camera Module with an industry-first* Optical Vibration-Compensation feature (Model: MP1010M-VC).
The leading drone manufacturers of today are integrating various types of small-size cameras into their systems. The problem becomes pronounced in terms of size and the picture quality.
Tamron announces the release of an ultra-compact camera module with an industry-first* optical vibration-compensation feature which assures high-quality image stabilization when images are captured in a vibrating environment. The realized physical size and weight of the compact module are optimum for drones, where weight, dimension, picture quality and vibration issues are essential.
Key Features
- Camera Module with Industry-First* Optical Vibration-Compensation
Images get blurred when captured under vibration. The problem emerges especially when images are captured at the telephoto-end. Compensation of blurring by means of post-processing software is accompanied by degradation in image quality; the new camera module, Model: MP1010M-VC, eliminates image blurring by means of Tamron’s proprietary optical vibration-compensation, and assures crisp and clear images at all scenes.
- Miniature and Lightweight Camera Module
With an optical vibration-compensation feature integrated, the module only measures a total length of 58.4mm and weighs approx. 77g, which enables effective saving of space and payload.
- Compatibility with Full HD
The video output is compatible with the industry-standard 1920 x 1080 Full HD. The module provides high-resolution, high-quality images optimum for surveillance as well as myriad of other applications.
- Excellent Optical Performance
Tamron’s proprietary optical design and advanced low-reflection coating technology, in combination with extensive engineering knowledge and in-house manufacturing know-hows, ensures superb image contrast without color blurs.
