HIKROBOT MV-CS060-10GC V5 — Area Scan Cameras
6 MP, Sony IMX178, GigE, Color, 19.5 fps

The MV-CS060-10GC V5 is the V5 edition of the CS series 6 MP color GigE camera, delivering 19.5 fps at 3072 × 2048 in Bayer RG 8. It operates at a typical 1.4 W at 12 VDC, and its 41.3 dB SNR and 71.3 dB dynamic range apply to the color output as well. The Sony® IMX178 rolling shutter CMOS sensor (1/1.8″, 2.4 μm pixels) is combined with CCM color correction and automatic or manual management of gain, exposure time, LUT and Gamma.
Whichever of the Bayer RG, YUV422Packed, YUV422_YUYV_Packed, RGB 8 or BGR 8 formats is selected, the data goes over 1000 Mbit/s Gigabit Ethernet, keeping compatibility with 100 Mbit/s Fast Ethernet and the 100-meter relay-free reach. Power comes via PoE or as 9–24 VDC through the 6-pin P7 connector, which also carries Line 0 (opto-isolated input), Line 1 (opto-isolated output) and Line 2 (bi-directional non-isolated). The 29 × 29 × 42 mm housing with four-sided mounting holes operates from –30 °C to 60 °C, and GigE Vision V2.0 and GenICam compliance keeps the camera open to third-party software.

Where it is used
Color 6 MP imaging with automatic exposure and gain control reduces manual calibration on mixed packaging lines where products of different colors and brightness follow one another. Fruit, vegetable and seed grading, cap and label color matching on cosmetics, and color-coded component verification in electronics assembly are typical uses. The PoE-powered, low-consumption design makes it easier to gather many color inspection points spread across the factory floor under a single switch.
Suitability depends on working distance, field of view, target characteristics and positioning. Selection is assessed on a per-project basis.
