AVS-Z Stereo camera

Overview

 

The ALG Stereo Camera developed by Ailiguang is a product built for intelligent vision applications (hereinafter referred to as “the Product”). It delivers high-precision 3D vision information for autonomous driving, robotics, industrial automation, rail transit and other scenarios.

Equipped with high-performance automotive-grade CMOS image sensors, the Product adopts backside illumination pixel and composite pixel technologies, achieving a dynamic range of over 120 dB. It performs well in outdoor mobile scenarios and outputs images with rich details and clear contrast under strong direct sunlight or low-light conditions.

Supplied with an SDK development kit, the Product is compatible with a wide range of mainstream platforms and can be connected to X86 and ARM-based devices such as Jetson and Raspberry Pi. The SDK supports standard driver frameworks and common development environments including V4L2 and ROS, which significantly reduces development and integration efforts and facilitates data acquisition and secondary development.

Data transmission of the Product is implemented via the GMSL 2 protocol, featuring high bandwidth and low latency. It adopts POC power supply, delivering reliable connection, strong anti-interference capability and long transmission distance. Featuring a robust industrial mechanical design, the Product reaches IP67 protection rating and supports an ultra-wide operating temperature range from -40°C to +85°C, enabling stable operation in harsh outdoor environments.
