### Reliable Day and Night Imaging with STURDeCAM57 Camera

e-con Systems has introduced STURDeCAM57, a 5MP global shutter RGB-IR GMSL2 camera developed for driver and passenger monitoring systems. This camera provides seamless and high-quality imaging from daylight to completely dark environments.

### Product Features

• 5MP RGB-IR camera based on an automotive-grade image sensor
• Simultaneous streaming of RGB and infrared (IR) images as independent channels
• Provides full-color and high-contrast IR data from a single camera
• Optimized for seamless integration with platforms like NVIDIA Jetson
• On-camera embedded custom Image Signal Processor (ISP) for RGB-IR processing
• The ISP performs color separation, demosaicing, and color reconstruction on the camera, reducing dependency on the main platform
• Reliable vision in low and dark light with 940 nanometer IR illumination and high quantum efficiency
• IP67 protection rating, operating temperature from -40°C to 85°C
• Power and data transmission up to 15 meters via GMSL connection
• Optional support for FPD-Link IV interface
• Compatible with NVIDIA Jetson AGX Orin, Orin NX, and Orin Nano platforms
• Evaluation support with e-con Systems' new AI Compute Box - Darsi PRO

### Application Areas and Advantages

STURDeCAM57 can be used in driver monitoring systems (DMS) and passenger monitoring systems (OMS), as well as in industrial automation and pick-and-place robotics applications. Thanks to global shutter technology, it captures images without distortion in fast-moving scenes.

Offering both color and infrared imaging with a single camera, it ensures continuous operation without the need for mechanical IR filter changes. This reduces system complexity and increases the resources of the main platform for AI and application processing.

### Durability and Continuous Monitoring

The camera operates reliably in harsh environmental conditions with its IP67-rated casing suitable for real-world conditions and a wide operating temperature range. Continuous image flow is ensured by a system that constantly monitors the health of the sensor, ISP, and GMSL connection.
