DFRobot - 4K USB Camera Module with Sony IMX678 Sensor (1/1.8" Large Sensor, 95° Wide Angle)

This flagship 4K USB camera is powered by the Sony IMX678 1/1.8" ultra-large format CMOS image sensor, delivering a stunning 8MP resolution (3840×2160). It features a 95° optimal Field of View (FOV) and supports high-speed capture up to 60FPS at 1080P and lower resolutions for silky-smooth video performance.

Ultra-Large Sensor & Exceptional Low-Light Performance

The 1/1.8-inch CMOS IMX678 sensor with 2.0μm pixel size empowers this USB camera with high dynamic range (HDR) and superior color accuracy. This 4K camera delivers clear, detailed images even in challenging lighting conditions, making it ideal for indoor and outdoor surveillance and AI vision applications.

Optimal Wide-Angle Coverage Without Distortion

Featuring a 95° diagonal FOV (90° horizontal, 58° vertical) with a 650nm IR lens (EFL: 4mm, F/no: 2.8), this USB UVC camera captures expansive scenes while maintaining precise detail. This 8MP camera balances wide-angle coverage and image clarity for professional video conferencing and high-end Maker projects.

Seamless Plug-and-Play Across Multiple Platforms

Equipped with a driver-free USB 2.0 (UVC) interface, this 4K camera offers true plug-and-play functionality across Windows, Linux, and Android systems without complex configuration. This compatibility ensures rapid deployment in diverse environments, from robotics development with DFRobot boards to PC-based streaming setups.
