Models for Embedded and Multi cameras systems¶

The xiX family consists of cameras based on the newest, high quality CMOS sensors from Sony, Gpixel and Osram (former CMOSIS and AMS), ideal for Embedded vision systems built out of multiple cameras.

In addition to the plethora of camera models and versions, XIMEA offers a whole infrastructure of accessories for various ways of interconnection - adapters, switches, carrier boards, computers and more.
