Lucid unveils Atlas Cameras featuring 5GBase-T PoE

Lucid Vision Labs has launched its Atlas 12.3 MP and 31.4 MP cameras over 5GBase-T PoE which it says can be used for ITS and traffic applications. Rod Barman, founder and president at Lucid, says: “The 5GBase-T Atlas camera hits the sweet spot of faster frame rates, small size and excellent price-performance.” According to Lucid, the 5GBase-T Ethernet interface offers similar bandwidth as CameraLink, allowing the use of standard CAT5e and CAT6 cables up to 100 metres. Atlas supports large format

Rod Barman, founder and president at Lucid, says: “The 5GBase-T Atlas camera hits the sweet spot of faster frame rates, small size and excellent price-performance.”

According to Lucid, the 5GBase-T Ethernet interface offers similar bandwidth as CameraLink, allowing the use of standard CAT5e and CAT6 cables up to 100 metres.

Atlas supports large format APS-C image sensors and is expected to operate over a wide ambient temperature of -20°C to 55°C, the company adds.  

The first models feature the colour and monochrome version of the 31.4 MP Sony IMX342 APS-C 4/3” global shutter CMOS sensor with a resolution of 6464 x 4852 px running at 17.9 fps. Also, the 12.3 MP Sony IMX253 1.1” C-mount comes with a resolution of 4096 x 3000 px running at 42 fps.

    Someone once likened predicting the future to ‘nailing a jelly to the wall’. With ITS, C-ITS and V2X technology progressing at such a pace, predicting the future is more akin to trying to nail three jellies to the wall – but only having one nail. And yet with roadways having a lifetime measured in decades, that is exactly what highway engineers and traffic planners are expected to do. Fortunately, New Hampshire DoT (NHDoT) believes its technological advances may be able to provide a solution. The Central Ne
