SONY FCB-EV9520L, as a new generation of high-definition camera core module, with powerful hardware composition and the latest software algorithms, for drones, remote monitoring, medical imaging, video conferencing, industrial inspection and other fields to bring unprecedented definition and performance improvement.
In the vast blue territory, how does the SONY FCB-EV9520L give the ROVs the extraordinary ability to penetrate the deep sea? Can it still output high-definition, stable video images?
The definition of ROVs
ROVs, also known as Remotely Operated vehicles (ROVs), are extreme-operated robots that work underwater. Due to the harsh and dangerous underwater environment, human diving depth is limited, so ROVs have become an important tool in the development of the ocean. They are capable of performing a variety of complex tasks underwater, such as detection, monitoring, sampling, and construction.
Challenges in different scenarios
In the field of ROVs, camera is an important part, and its imaging quality and performance directly affect the operation effect and application range of underwater vehicle. The SONY FCB-EV9520L HD movement module plays a key role in providing high-definition visual support to meet the needs of a wide range of underwater operations.
Deep sea terrain mapping:
In deep-sea exploration, the deep-sea terrain, geological structure and underwater environment are very complicated, and insufficient or too strong light is common, which puts forward extremely high technical requirements for the camera movement carried by ROVs.
SONY FCB-EV9520L HD movement module, equipped with 1/2.8 inch STARVIS2 CMOS high-performance image sensor, the effective number of pixels up to about 2.13 million, support full HD 1080P60 video output, to ensure the picture of high definition and fine, so that the ROVs to capture the image more clear, realistic, Provide geologists with valuable data.
Marine Biological Research:
Scientists use ROVs to conduct Marine ecological surveys and observe the behavior, ecological habits, habitat and distribution range of Marine organisms, which helps to understand the operation mechanism of Marine ecosystems and protect biodiversity.
The light in the underwater environment is changeable, from the direct sunlight of the water surface to the darkness of the deep sea, the SONY FCB-EV9520L HD movement die has a high dynamic wide dynamic range (130 dB), which can cope with the complex environment that exists at the same time, so that the ROVs can obtain clear images under different lighting conditions.
The fast autofocus function of the SONY FCB-EV9520L allows you to track the target organism in real time and maintain the clarity of the image. It is of great significance to study the migration path and behavior of Marine organisms.
Marine resource exploration:
For the complex and changeable underwater environment, water flow, wave and other natural factors are easy to cause image jitter. The SONY FCB-EV9520L HD movement module is equipped with advanced image stabilization technology (with S and S+ modes), which can effectively reduce image blur and shake to ensure the stability and clarity of the shot picture. This is especially important for underwater tasks that require long-term stable filming, such as subsea pipeline inspection and Marine resource exploration.
Underwater Archaeology:
For the archaeological excavation of underwater sites and shipwrecks, there are many areas that are difficult for ROVs to reach. At this time, the SONY FCB-EV9520L HD movement module’s 30x optical zoom and fast autofocus function can help ROVs clearly present distant or subtle targets, and with 12x digital zoom, achieve flexible switching from wide Angle to long focus. To meet the high standard needs of underwater robots in different tasks.
Underwater facility inspection:
In the inspection and maintenance of underwater oil and gas pipelines, submarine cables and other facilities, thanks to the low-light performance of the SONY FCB-EV9520L HD movement module, it ensures that even in the darkest abyss, it can help the ROVs to capture clear images. Its highly sensitive STARVIS2 CMOS sensor, which can output more realistic images in almost no light environment, can capture subtle changes on the surface of the facility, such as cracks, corrosion, etc., to provide strong support for timely detection and resolution of problems.
Underwater Rescue and Search:
For natural disasters such as tsunamis and earthquakes, or for search and rescue after maritime accidents, time is of the essence, and in these emergency situations, every minute and every second counts.
SONY FCB-EV9520L HD movement module, with 3G-SDI coding control board, can feed back the situation of the disaster site in real time, improve the efficiency and success rate of search and rescue.
In addition, SONY FCB-EV9520L supports low latency mode, which can process and output images at the fastest speed, reducing the delay time of transmission and processing. This is important for underwater robotic rescue and search, which require real-time feedback and rapid response, to ensure that searchers can make more timely responses and decisions.
In SUMMARY:
In the deep ocean, for the complex terrain structure, ups and downs of the waves, the whereabouts of erratic creatures, light and dark interweaved, light unpredictable and even almost no light complex underwater environment, SONY FCB-EV9520L Full HD camera module, just like the ROVs gives the “wisdom eye”, high-definition, stable visual picture, Leading us across boundaries and into the mysteries of the deep.
