See3Cam_CU135

General Information

The See3Cam_CU135 (colloquially known as the "See3Cam") is a 13 MP camera developed by e-con Systems, featuring a 1/3.2" sensor. It supports all M10/S-mount lenses, typically used on CCTV systems, provided that the lens supports it's given sensor size or larger. Although this camera is typically shipped with a USB-C port, our camera uses the micro-USB3 (standard micro-usb but wider). It is generally recommended to always use this camera on a USB3 port to ensure maximum throughput.

General specifications can be found here.

If you are using python-opencv, you must set resolutions before capturing frames:

cam = cv2.VideoCapture(0)
cam.set(3, WIDTH)
cam.set(4, HEIGHT)

Get all possible resolutions of camera in a Linux Terminal:

v4l2-ctl --list-formats-ext

Set Exposure Command

v4l2-ctl -d /dev/video0 -c exposure_absolute=40

Data Sheets

The datasheets about the board are labeled as the USB-C model. Please disregard this, for our model actually uses the micro-USB3 standard.

The Lens Datasheet is for the included lens currently on the See3Cam.
