SoC Camera Module

C4AV’s 2Mp SOC Miniature Digital Camera Module is based on the Aptina Digital Clarity CMOS imaging technology. Its 2-Mpixel sensor has a resolution of 1600 by 1200 pixels. Also, its system-on-a-chip (SoC) design incorporates the CMOS image sensor module plus an on-chip Image Flow Processor (IFP) that can perform a range of functions including color recovery and correction, image sharpening, gamma, lens shading correction, on-the-fly defect correction, and 2X fixed zoom. It can handle image decimation to an arbitrary size with smooth, continuous pan and zoom. Further, it includes a real-time JPEG encoder. Image capture can be synchronized with Xenon and LED-type flashes. Its full-resolution frame rate is 15 frames/s (348 mW), or 30 frames/s in preview mode (223 mW).

I earned a Bachelor of Electrical Engineering at the Georgia Institute of Technology and a Masters in Computer Science from Rutgers University. I still do a bit of programming using everything from C and C++ to Rust and Ada/SPARK. I do a bit of PHP programming for Drupal websites. I have posted a few Drupal modules.

I still get a hand on software and electronic hardware. Some of this can be found on our Kit Close-Up video series. You can also see me on many of our TechXchange Talk videos. I am interested in a range of projects from robotics to artificial intelligence.
