CMOS Image sensor intergration

27 Jul, 2018 08:46 PM

Hi, i am a mechanical engineer and have a submersible inspection ROV that is only 1" in diameter. How best do I go about using a CMOS sensor. I have trialled a few internal protocol cameras to determine the quality of the image produced by various cmos image sensors. They are far to large for intergration into my ROV. Is anyone able to advise on how to intrergrate an CMOS image sensor on the end of my ROV and have the processing inside or have it happen external to the ROV.

That’s a small creature... check out https://www.chipestimate.com/Analog-to-Digital-Conversion-for-CMOS-Image-Sensors/Maxim-Integrated/Technical-Article/2010/11/30 the digital outputs as shown in the article’s diagrams could be transmitted by antenna or wire radio to an external unit containing the cpu.

Check out these low res, but super small:

I'm imagining you are doing inspection of tanks and such? Not sure how far you need to go, but with a serial camera like this with LVDS, you could add a line driver to get fairly long distances like 30-50m with twisted pair cabling.

What is the best resolution camera you can get for a device that is 2.56 round?
