Description

Introducing the world's first patent-pending UVC camera that boasts a 2MP HD Global Shutter sensor all through a USB output while featuring external Frame-Sync capability with microsecond accuracy. All of these features in a familiar easy-to-use package with an impressive 1000 meter to 2000 meter water-depth rating.

Equipped with a modern Global Shutter sensor and a proprietary PCB, you will be able to capture synchronized video like never before. Using our frame-syncing technology, chain a multitude of cameras to capture simultaneously-synchronized video up to 60 FPS.

Choose between color or monochrome sensor. If color is not a necessity, monochrome sensor is recommended as it will offer better sharpness and low light performance with less bandwidth.

This camera offers versatile frame-syncing configurations for any project scale. Choose between a 1-leader/multiple-follower setup to have one camera control the synchronization of others, perfect for multi-angle captures. Alternatively, connect all cameras to an external clock signal for large-scale, complex operations. This flexibility ensures precise, simultaneous video capturing, making the stellarHD ideal for advanced multi-camera underwater setups.

Furthermore, due to its UVC compliant nature, the stellarHD is the first plug and play machine vision capable subsea camera. This makes the stellarHD the perfect choice for anyone looking to make a truly modern multi-cam underwater setup.
