IP67 GMSL2 Camera

IP67 GMSL2 cameras are used when an embedded vision system needs reliable image acquisition outside controlled laboratory conditions.

In many applications, the camera must operate near moving equipment, outdoors, inside vehicles or in space-constrained systems. GMSL2 supports flexible camera placement by transmitting image data over robust coaxial cabling, while the IP67 housing adds protection for demanding installation environments.

The Acuva Series is designed for these rugged embedded and industrial vision applications.

IP67 GMSL2 cameras are designed for applications exposed to dust, moisture and environmental stress.

All The Imaging Source GMSL2 cameras in this series are housed IP67 cameras. This makes the Acuva Series suitable for embedded vision systems in outdoor, mobile or industrial environments where standard board-level cameras may not provide enough protection.

IP67 protection is especially useful for robotics, agriculture, vehicle-based systems and inspection applications close to machinery or production processes.

IP67 GMSL2 cable length and system layout

IP67 GMSL2 cameras support flexible system layouts by allowing longer cable distances between the camera and processing platform.

Acuva cameras use coaxial PoC cables in lengths from 1 m to 15 m. This allows the camera to be positioned where image capture is needed while the processing unit can be placed in a protected or accessible location.

Power over coax also helps reduce wiring complexity by combining power and data transmission in one cable.

IP67 GMSL2 data transfer and image transmission

IP67 GMSL2 cameras support high-speed image transmission for demanding embedded vision systems.

The Acuva Series supports data transfer speeds of up to 6 Gbps. This makes the cameras suitable for applications that require reliable image acquisition, real-time processing or multi-camera system layouts.

High-speed transmission is important when the application needs both image quality and stable communication between the camera and host platform.

Acuva IP67 GMSL2 camera series

The Acuva Series is The Imaging Source’s IP67 GMSL2 camera line for rugged embedded vision.

The cameras are available in monochrome and color versions. The portfolio includes global shutter and rolling shutter CMOS sensors, including Sony Pregius S global shutter options for high image quality and low-noise performance.

Acuva cameras combine rugged mechanical design with embedded vision integration support, helping OEMs and system integrators move from evaluation to deployment with less development risk.

IP67 GMSL2 sensors and resolutions

Acuva IP67 GMSL2 cameras are available with different sensor, resolution and frame rate options.

The portfolio includes 2.3 MP, 3.1 MP, 5 MP and 19.7 MP camera models. Frame rates range from 14 fps to 100 fps, depending on the selected sensor and resolution.

Global shutter models are suitable for applications with moving objects, vibration or motion-sensitive inspection tasks. The 19.7 MP rolling shutter option is suitable when high image detail is the main requirement.

Acuva IP67 GMSL2 cameras include integrated M12 S-mount lenses and FAKRA connectors.

The integrated lens design supports compact rugged camera integration. FAKRA connectors provide a robust connection for embedded and industrial systems where vibration, movement or environmental stress may affect standard cabling.

This combination helps create a stable camera connection for demanding embedded vision applications.

IP67 GMSL2 platform compatibility

IP67 GMSL2 integration depends on the camera, cable, deserializer board, processing platform and software stack.

Acuva cameras are compatible with The Imaging Source NVIDIA Jetson Orin reference designs through a deserializer board. They are also compatible with selected industrial PCs from partners including Neousys Technology, AAEON, PCB ARTS and ConnectTech.

This ecosystem approach helps reduce integration risk and supports a clearer path from evaluation to a working embedded vision system.

IP67 GMSL2 software support

The Imaging Source supports Acuva IP67 GMSL2 cameras with software tools for embedded development.

Support can include device drivers, software development kits, end-user software, programming samples, extensions and IC Imaging Control 4 SDK, depending on the selected GMSL2 camera setup and processing platform.

This helps engineering teams build embedded vision systems with less integration effort.

IP67 GMSL2 triggering support

Acuva IP67 GMSL2 cameras support triggering for machine vision applications.

Triggering allows image acquisition to be synchronized with external system events. This is useful when the camera must capture images in coordination with lighting, motion control, machine timing or object position.

Trigger support makes Acuva cameras suitable for applications that require controlled image capture instead of simple video streaming.

Acuva IP67 GMSL2 cameras are part of a complete embedded vision ecosystem.

The Imaging Source provides rugged IP67 GMSL2 cameras, coaxial PoC cabling, deserializer boards, compatible platform integrations and technical support. This helps OEMs and system integrators reduce compatibility issues and move more efficiently from prototype to production.

For projects with specific mechanical, optical or branding requirements, OEM camera options and co-branding support are also available.
