TIER IV, the pioneering force behind the world’s first open-source software for autonomous driving, is thrilled to announce that the automotive-grade C3 Camera with an 8.3 megapixel image sensor is now available for order. Building on the success of the 2.5-megapixel C1 Camera and 5.4-megapixel C2 Camera, the C3 Camera offers higher resolution and lens options, enabling precise imaging for applications beyond the automotive sector.
Product overview
The C3 Camera features an 8.3-megapixel image sensor, enabling precise image capture even in high-speed environments like highway driving for autonomous driving. The increased resolution enhances the detection range and improves the recognition of small objects and lane markings, capturing fine details even with a wider field of view. This capability ensures broad coverage while maintaining the ability to detect long-range and small objects. Like the C1 Camera and C2 Camera, the C3 Camera has a dynamic range equivalent to 120 dB and LED flicker reduction capabilities, ensuring high-quality image capture in a broad range of scenarios, including those with challenging lighting conditions. Three lens options are available, offering horizontal fields of view of 30, 70, and 123 degrees, with in-camera distortion correction disabled.
TIER IV is actively exploring non-automotive applications for the C3 Camera, with the camera’s versatility making it a valuable tool for specialized imaging needs in fields such as industrial autonomy.
