Allied Vision has announced an expansion of its modular hardware options for the Alvium cameras, with a new product designed specifically to enhance flexibility and integration capabilities. The latest addition is the Alvium G1 Board Level (BL) camera, which separates the sensor from the interface via a flex cable. This innovation opens up numerous system design possibilities, particularly in space-constrained environments.

Key Features of Alvium Board Level Cameras

The Alvium G1 BL cameras are tailored for applications where the positioning of connectors requires customization beyond standard designs. By utilizing flexible cables measuring either 110 mm or 200 mm, these cameras can be oriented and positioned more freely within compact systems. This flexibility extends to custom housing integration as well. Available in various lens mounts—including C-Mount, CS-Mount, S-Mount—or with no mount at all, the Alvium G1 BL series offers versatile installation options on both sensor and interface sides.

These cameras are delivered pre-assembled for ease of use. The Board Level option is compatible with all current Alvium G1 models and can be combined seamlessly with other modular features like the Alvium Frame camera.

The Flexible Alvium Modular Concept

The Alvium platform represents a commitment to flexibility through its modular design, ensuring that cameras adapt to customer needs rather than requiring customers to compromise on functionality. Available in six different interface configurations, the Alvium lineup caters to diverse imaging requirements alongside extensive sensor choices and lens compatibility options.

To further enhance customization:

  • Alvium Flex provides additional connector variants for USB3 and CSI-2.
  • The Alvium Frame option delivers superior optical precision.
  • Additional features include filter wheel support, the removal of cover glass (RCG), and active alignment tools for S-mount lenses.
