Global Shutter GigE Camera with AR0234 Sensor Built for Speed and Clarity

Vadzo’s global shutter GigE camera, featuring the AR0234 sensor, is built to handle high-speed imaging applications where distortion-free frames are essential. With 1080p resolution, fast frame rates, and Ethernet-based transmission, it serves demanding industrial environments such as inspection lines, traffic systems, and robotic vision.

AR0234 Camera Sensor for High-Performance Imaging
The AR0234 is a 1/2.6-inch global shutter CMOS sensor from onsemi. It delivers 2.3MP resolution at up to 120 frames per second. This sensor captures moving subjects without geometric distortion, making it suitable for situations where object speed and image accuracy go hand-in-hand—such as reading barcodes on moving packages or identifying fast-moving vehicles.

Why Global Shutter Matters
In fast-paced systems, cameras that use rolling shutter technology can introduce motion blur and skew. Vadzo’s global shutter GigE camera prevents such issues by exposing all pixels simultaneously. This design ensures that every frame reflects the exact moment it was captured, preserving accuracy in visual inspection, sorting, and automation tasks.

GigE Interface for Efficient Data Flow
With Gigabit Ethernet connectivity, this camera supports long-distance, high-bandwidth image transmission up to 100 meters without signal repeaters. It’s designed for factory setups where centralized control systems connect to multiple cameras across large areas. The GigE protocol also supports real-time data transfer without sacrificing resolution or frame rate.

Industrial Build, Flexible Integration
Vadzo’s camera housing is compact and built for 24/7 operation. Its CS-mount lens support allows users to adapt the camera to different focal lengths and viewing angles. The camera integrates easily with machine vision systems using standard protocols, trigger input, and GPIO for external control.

Practical Applications for AR0234-Based GigE Cameras
This global shutter GigE camera serves a range of high-speed vision needs, such as:

Automated inspection: Captures small defects in fast-moving components

Traffic management: Identifies license plates and vehicle types accurately

Barcode scanning: Maintains focus and clarity during motion

Robotic alignment: Guides robotic arms using precise frame data

Logistics and sorting: Tracks packages and objects on conveyor systems

Conclusion
Vadzo’s global shutter GigE camera with the AR0234 camera sensor offers accurate, high-speed image capture for industrial and commercial environments. Built to deliver consistent results under motion and lighting challenges, it supports critical vision tasks with the right combination of hardware performance and interface flexibility.
