HIKROBOT MV-CH120-10GC — Area Scan Cameras
12 MP, Sony IMX304, GigE, Color, 9.9 fps
The color member in the V4 body, the MV-CH120-10GC runs the Sony® IMX304 sensor in Bayer RG 8 at 4096 × 3000 and 9.9 fps, with YUV422 and RGB/BGR 8 outputs also on hand. On the color-processing side, Super Bayer and Super Palette are available in-camera, alongside 40 dB SNR and 70.4 dB dynamic range from 3.45 μm pixels. The 29 × 29 × 42 mm cube form fits 12 MP IMX304 color imaging into one of the most compact packages in the CH family.
Connectivity is Gigabit Ethernet with relay-free cabling up to 100 meters and PoE power; with the 9–24 VDC external option, typical consumption is 3.0 W at 12 VDC. Mounting holes on four faces let the camera be fixed from different angles, and the 6-pin P7 connector carries one opto-isolated input, one opto-isolated output and one bi-directional line. Hardware and software triggering are available together with functions such as Sequencer and LSC; the 100 g IP40 C-mount body follows GigE Vision 2.0 / GenICam.

Where it is used
It is a candidate for color 12 MP tasks where space is tight: label, color and cap checks on cosmetic and pharmaceutical boxes, pattern and tint grading of wood and laminate panels, and color-match inspection of automotive interior components. The 9.9 fps rate is enough for stationary or indexed conveyors, and the small body makes retrofitting the camera into existing machines easier.
Suitability depends on working distance, field of view, target characteristics and positioning. Selection is assessed on a per-project basis.
