SINCEREFIRST
This Ultra Small Wide Angle Waterproof OVM6946 CMOS Sensor USB2.0 Interface Endoscope Camera Module, is specifically designed for endoscopic inspection in confined spaces. It features a 1/18-inch OVM6946 sensor with a USB 2.0 interface, optional 4 high-brightness white LEDs, and a steel sheel with waterproof capabilities. With a depth of field ranging from 5mm to 50mm, it excels at capturing images in close-range micro-spaces. It finds extensive applications in scenarios requiring ultra-compact, close-range inspection, such as: - Industrial micro-pipeline inspection - Endoscopic maintenance inside precision instrument cavities - Medical micro-cavity observation - Automotive micro-component endoscopic inspection - Home appliance micro-internal pipeline maintenance . | ![]() |
Product Advantage ◢
1.Close-Range Imaging: Designed specifically for close-proximity endoscopic applications with a depth of field of 5mm to 50mm. The integrated 120° ultra-wide-angle lens allows a single module to cover the inspection field of view within micro-spaces effectively.
2.Clear Imaging in Low-Light Conditions: Equipped with 4 high-brightness white LEDs. In environments with no ambient light (0 lux), activating the LEDs enables clear image capture.
3.Plug-and-Play Functionality: Utilizes a standard USB 2.0 interface, ensuring plug-and-play operation without complex driver adaptation across various host devices.
4.Wide Temperature Stability: Operates reliably within an ambient temperature range of -20°C to 70°C, with stable image quality maintained between 0°C and 50°C. This makes it adaptable to demanding industrial environments, outdoor inspections, and other scenarios with temperature variations.

FAQ ◢
1. What should I do if the module fails after high temperature sterilization?
Check whether the tolerance temperature is exceeded (for example, some are only 120°C), turn off the power and remove the battery before sterilization, damage may involve sealant failure or circuit board deformation.
2. Why do some modules differ several times in price?
The difference is due to sensor brands (such as SONY IMX series vs domestic), optical lens groups (aspherical lenses cost more), medical certification (such as FDA process takes 2-3 years) and other factors.
3. What does an endoscope camera module see?
A4: The endoscopic camera module captures detailed images and video of narrow internal structures and is typically used in medical, industrial or research Settings. In medical use, it is inserted into the body through slender tubes, capable of capturing high-definition images in small or hard-to-reach areas. The lens of an endoscope is usually equipped with a light source to provide a clear view in a dark environment. The device can record and transmit images in real time to help doctors look at organs, tissues and other internal structures to identify lesions, inflammation or other health problems. It can help visualize the stomach, intestines, bronchus, ear canal, nasal cavity, esophagus, bladder, prostate, vagina and other organs, allowing diagnosis and monitoring of conditions such as tumors, infections or blockages. The abnormalities of tissues and blood vessels can be seen in real time. In industrial Settings, it can inspect areas of machinery, plumbing or infrastructure that are difficult to see directly with the naked eye, highlighting wear, corrosion or blockage.
4. Regarding imaging clarity: Can it focus at an ultra-close distance of 5mm? Can it clearly show minute scratches?
The module's depth of field ranges from 5–50mm, with a minimum working distance of 5mm. At this distance, it clearly reveals surface textures of inspected objects. Combined with a 120° ultra-wide field of view, a single image captures a circular area approximately 10mm in diameter (at 5mm working distance), sufficient for clearly identifying minute details such as scratches, burrs, and foreign particles. The image sensor size is 1/18 inch, with pixel dimensions and resolution optimized for macro imaging scenarios.
5. Regarding Interface Compatibility: Does the USB 2.0 interface support mobile phones or embedded platforms?
The module employs a standard USB 2.0 interface supporting the UVC protocol, enabling plug-and-play functionality on mainstream operating systems including Windows, Linux, and Android. Connecting to a mobile phone requires an OTG adapter cable and confirmation that the phone supports external UVC devices. Connecting to embedded platforms (e.g., Raspberry Pi, Jetson Nano) enables direct recognition without additional drivers. Pin definitions are standardized as VBUS, D+, D-, and GND, supporting integrated 5V power supply and data transmission for seamless integration into various terminal devices.
