PH-Cam-K — Global-shutter USB camera
PH-Cam-K — ПХ-Cam-K in Russian documents
USB UVC with a 2 MP global shutter (SmartSens SC235HGS), 1080p@60: no motion blur on a fast-moving object — a label, a hand, a part on a conveyor. Works with every edge computer in the catalog.
Outline drawing; product photos are on the product page. Dimensions: ≈38×38×32 mm without lens.
- SmartSens SC235HGS sensor, global shutter, 2 MP, 1080p@60 over USB (onsemi AR0234 — while stock lasts)
- USB 3.0 UVC — plug-and-play on the PH-K30 / PH-K40 / PH-K01 / PH-J31 / PH-J01
- Metal housing, M12 lens (60° base; 45° / 80° — options)
- Bracket over the work area (kiosk hood, stand), 3 m cable with screw lock
Typical uses: kiosk scanning zone · conveyor and production line · manipulator and work area · vehicle cab.
1. Purpose
A camera for scenes with fast motion: a kiosk scanning zone, a conveyor, a manipulator's work area, a vehicle cab. Global shutter — because a rolling shutter smears a fast-moving object or a hand. USB rather than radio or IP: no FSB notification, no second network, no security questions. Metal housing, bracket over the work area, cable with a locking connector. The onsemi AR0234 sensor of the first version has been discontinued — the base sensor is now the SmartSens SC235HGS (2 MP, global shutter, 3.45 µm pixel); AR0234 modules remain available while stock lasts for those who have already tested them. Connects to the PH-K30, PH-K40, PH-K01, PH-J31, PH-J01 with no drivers.
