This product is no longer available. This page is only for reference.

The camera uses the Sony Low Light STARVIS IMX327 sensor which is a diagonal 6.46 mm (Type 1/2.8) CMOS active pixel type solid state image sensor with square pixel array and 2.13 million effective pixels. The chip uses analog 2.9 V, digital 1.2 V, and interface 1.8 V. This highly sensitive low-light camera can capture extremely sharp images with minimal noise at extremely low light conditions. It features low power consumption, high functionality, high sensitivity, low dark current and no smear. The sensor applies R, G, and B primary color mosaic filters, as well as a variable electronic shutter.

Applications

Surveillance cameras
FA cameras
Industrial cameras
Autonomous mobile robots, UGV/UAV, ADAS, etc.

Comparasion

Among the Sony STARVIS series sensors, IMX290, IMX462, and IMX327 are some of the more popular ones. Though they are all belong to the STARVIS series, there are some differences between them. Please see the following table about the similarities and differences:

Specifications	Sensor
Specifications	IMX462	IMX290	IMX327
Mega Pixels	2.10MP	2.07MP	2.07MP
Max Resolution	1920x1080	1920x1080	1920x1080
Optical Size	1/2.8''	1/2.8''	1/2.8''
Pixel Size	2.9µm×2.9µm	2.9µm×2.9µm	2.9µm×2.9µm
G Sensitivity*	10471	5486	10471
Max Frame Rate	120fps(sensor)	120fps(sensor)	90fps(sensor)
NIR Sensitivity(850nm)*	~1	~0.5	~1

G Sensitivity*: Gravity sensitivity is an important indicator of camera performance in low light conditions. Higher the G sensitivity, better is the low light performance.
NIR sensitivity*: NIR imaging performance is one of the most crucial features for smart surveillance, smart traffic monitoring, and agricultural applications.

Package Includes

1 x IMX327 Motorized IR-CUT Camera Module
