DMM 36SX290-ML MIPI CSI-2
DMM 36SX290-ML
- Sony IMX290
- MIPI CSI-2 Camera
The IMX290 MIPI CSI-2 camera DMM 36SX290-ML is a compact monochrome embedded vision camera with a CMOS STARVIS rolling shutter sensor. With 1920×1080 resolution, 120 fps and 2.1 MP output, this camera is designed for embedded vision systems that need full HD grayscale imaging.
The DMM 36SX290-ML uses a 1/2.8 inch IMX290 CMOS STARVIS sensor and connects through a MIPI CSI-2 interface. Its design from the 36S Series makes it suitable for compact embedded systems, robotics, inspection devices and OEM vision products.
IMX290 sensor for embedded vision
The DMM 36SX290-ML is built around the IMX290 image sensor. This CMOS STARVIS sensor pairs a 1920×1080 resolution with a rolling shutter and 2.1 MP output, providing full HD frames at 120 fps for embedded imaging tasks.

Monochrome MIPI CSI-2 camera with IMX290 sensor
This monochrome MIPI CSI-2 camera outputs grayscale images. A monochrome camera is often the best choice when the application does not require color information, but does need sharp contrast, high light efficiency and stable image processing.
Unlike a color camera, a monochrome camera does not use a Bayer color filter to calculate RGB values, which can reduce sharpness compared with monochrome cameras. Monochrome cameras can also be more light sensitive than color cameras in many setups.
For embedded vision, this makes the DMM 36SX290-ML especially interesting for barcode reading, object detection, motion analysis, measurement tasks and inspection systems where grayscale information is enough.
Rolling shutter MIPI CSI-2 camera for general imaging
The DMM 36SX290-ML is a rolling shutter MIPI CSI-2 camera. Rolling shutter sensors expose pixel rows sequentially, which suits many embedded vision tasks. Very fast motion may introduce rolling artifacts compared with global shutter designs.
The 120 fps capability enables high-frame-rate capture for embedded workflows.
Applications for the IMX290 MIPI CSI-2 camera
The DMM 36SX290-ML is suitable for embedded vision applications where a compact monochrome camera is required. Typical use cases include:
- Machine vision inspection
- Robotics and automation
- Motion analysis
- Object detection
- Barcode and code reading
- Measurement systems
