In the world of industrial, medical, and inspection technologies, endoscope camera modules play a pivotal role.
In industrial settings, efficiency and precision are paramount, especially when it comes to equipment inspections.
When choosing inspection tools for industrial purposes, precision, efficiency, and reliability are key. In many industries, the ability to inspect internal components or hard-to-reach areas without dismantling equipment is crucial.
In the fast-paced world of automotive repair and diagnostics, precision, efficiency, and speed are paramount. Traditional methods of engine inspection often require time-consuming disassembly, which leads to longer downtimes and higher costs.
In today's fast-paced industrial environment, precision and efficiency are key factors driving successful operations. One technology that has significantly contributed to achieving these goals is the USB endoscope camera module.
Designed for multi-scenario precision inspection, it is equipped with the core OmniVision OCHTA10 CMOS sensor. Its ultra-slim diameter of 1.2mm±0.05mm breaks through the spatial limitations of traditional tools. Paired with an F/2.8 large aperture and an ultra-close focusing capability of 0.175mm, i
In endoscopic camera modules, lens material is a core factor determining imaging quality, durability, and cost. From a popular science perspective, this article systematically analyzes the key impacts of three materials—plastic, glass-plastic hybrid, and all-glass—on endoscopic modules, helping to u
As a manufacturer specializing in the R&D and production of endoscope camera modules, we often receive questions from customers: Why do two modules labeled with "1080P resolution, 1/4-inch CIS, 2-megapixel" have consistent core parameters but different models?

1. Can the brightness of the lighting system be adjusted?
Yes, the brightness of the lighting system can usually be adjusted. You can adjust the lighting brightness through the operation interface on the connected device or the control buttons on the module itself (if available) to adapt to different inspection environments.
2. Can the images and videos be saved?
Yes, the operation software on the connected device generally provides the function of saving images and videos. You can save the captured images and videos to the hard disk or other storage media of the device for subsequent viewing, analysis, and archiving.
3. How to achieve waterproof and sterilization design?
The medical-grade module adopts IP68 waterproof seal, the shell material is resistant to high temperature and pressure, and can withstand 134°C steam sterilization. Industrial modules may require only a splash proof design.
4. What is the difference between medical and industrial endoscope modules?
The medical module emphasizes biocompatibility, sterilization and high image quality, and needs to comply with FDA/CE certification; Industrial modules focus on durability (such as corrosion protection), wide temperature operation (-20°C to 70°C), and special light sources (such as UV).
5. What can I do if the module fails to start?
Check the power adapter (for example, 12V output), the port is loose, and the fuse is blown. If the wireless module is used, check the battery level and pairing status.
