Global shutter cameras for oak modules

Goto HBVCAM to know more.

Hi, we're using oak D Lite cameras. But the default camera has a rolling shutter, which causes motion blur for moving objects. Is there a possibility of swapping the camera in the module with global shutter ones? If yes, can you recommend any options please? And do we just physically swap them out and run (or do we need any fw/sw changes)?

I see one option from Arducam here, but I'm not sure if this process will work

Additionally, are there oak d cameras with global shutter cameras by default?

Thanks!
Sharad

Based purely on the size, that big sensor should have nearly 5 stops extra dynamic range, so it doesn't seem all that good.

There are many other factors than size that determine dynamic range capabilities of a sensor. The Starvis 2 sensor family is certainly evidence of that even without the use of HDR.

Eventually, we will be seeing even larger sensors used in dash cams. I believe this is inevitable.

You will be arguing with the laws of physics if you try that! Definitely not inevitable

Nonsense!

There is no reason that dash cams need to be built with M12 lenses and even use the types of housings we are accustomed to. There are many other design possibilities including the potential use of C-mount pancake lenses or their equivalent. This would open up a whole realm of possibilities regarding what sized sensor could be used. Indeed there have been tiny larger sensor cameras on the market for years already such as the Sony RXO II which has a 1 inch sensor as does the Insta360 1 RS or the RS which has two and shoots 6K video.

Large sensors would be a game changer for dash cam performance.

It is always a marvel Nigel to witness the nature of the arguments you engage in. More than a year ago, in July when I suggested the possibility that one day we may see global shutter dash cams you claimed that global shutters are only used in industrial settings for machine vision where powerful strobe lights are used for illumination because such sensors are not sensitive enough . Somehow, despite all the evidence I provided back then and now about how global shutters from several manufacturers including Sony Pregius 2 are rapidly moving into the realm of CCTV surveillance cameras and high end cinematography video you are still sticking with the same misinformation.

all the Pregius sensors are less sensitive than the Starvis 2 sensors since they are designed for industrial use where there can be plenty of light, often coming from a high brightness strobe light
