HIKROBOT MV-CB004-10GC-S — Area Scan Cameras
0.4 MP, Sony IMX297, GigE, Color, 125.2 fps
Sharing the same Sony IMX297 global-shutter sensor and 125.2 fps top speed at 720×540 as its mono sibling, the MV-CB004-10GC-S adds a Bayer color filter, giving it RGB/YUV/BGR output options alongside raw Bayer and mono formats. The 6.9 µm pixels still support a 41 dB SNR and 74 dB dynamic range, so color capture doesn’t come at a large noise-performance cost. Like the rest of the CB004 family it is a bare board with no housing — mounting holes and an M12 lens seat sit directly on the PCB, and the board must be enclosed by the customer’s own housing.
It shares the 0.4 MP mono model’s GigE interface (100 m reach without a relay), 6-pin power/I/O connector, and 9–24 VDC/PoE power options, drawing a marginally higher typical 2.6 W at 12 VDC to run the color pipeline. GigE Vision V2.0 and GenICam compliance keep it compatible with MVS and third-party vision software using the same protocols as the mono variant.

Where it is used
Because it adds color at the same high frame rate, it fits fast lines where color is the distinguishing feature — sorting by color, verifying printed labels or packaging colors, or checking multi-color component placement — rather than pure geometric checks better served by the mono version.
Suitability depends on working distance, field of view, target characteristics and positioning. Selection is assessed on a per-project basis.
