Product Description

This is our newly developed USB camera module with a GC0308 sensor. The sensor size is 1/6.5, which means that the larger the size, the better the luminous flux. The camera can run at 30fps at 648*488 resolution, resulting in smooth and clear pictures. It is a versatile and affordable 0.3 MP camera module that features high performance and low power consumption. The USB camera module has versatile applications in access control equipment, all-in-one computers, video doorbells, laptops, and face recognition technology. Customization services are also available upon request.

Product Features

VGA Video at 30fps

Provides 640 × 480 video for live preview and basic scene capture. Select the resolution according to the smallest detail that must remain visible.

USB 2.0 Connection

Supports connection to a compatible host for video acquisition. Check streaming and application access with your intended operating system and capture software.

YUY2 Output

Uses YUY2 video output. Include format compatibility in your software evaluation before finalizing the camera configuration.

Fixed-Focus Lens

A fixed-focus configuration suits installations with a defined viewing distance. Test the nearest and farthest subject positions required by your application.

Image Adjustment

Listed controls include brightness, contrast, saturation, hue, sharpness and gamma. Available controls should be checked on the selected firmware and host application.

OEM/ODM Customization & Development Process

Match the Camera to Your Integration Requirements

A suitable camera configuration must fit both the imaging task and the device structure. Sinoseen provides OEM/ODM camera module services and can assess changes to the optical setup, flexible-circuit layout, connection arrangement, and supported operating configuration.

Project Requirement	Areas for Engineering Review	Information to Provide
The camera does not fit the enclosure	Camera-head placement, FPC outline, and routing	Mechanical drawings and available space
cene coverage or working distance is unsuitable	Lens selection, field of view, and focus setting	Target dimensions and capture distance
The host connection differs from the standard design	Connector, pin assignment, and interface configuration	Host specifications and connection requirements
Moving targets require sharper capture	Exposure, lighting, and supported frame-rate modes	arget speed, sample images, and lighting conditions
he project requires infrared imaging	Filter and lens suitability	Illumination wavelength and imaging requirements

Customization feasibility, development scope, cost, and lead time are confirmed after engineering review.

Customization Process

Step 1 — Share Your Requirements

Provide the application, host platform, required resolution and frame rate, working distance, installation space, and estimated quantity.

Step 2 — Review the Configuration

Assess the sensor operating mode, interface, lens, and mechanical arrangement. Identify any changes required for the target device.

Step 3 — Confirm Drawings and Evaluation Criteria

Agree on the configuration, connection details, mechanical revision, and sample acceptance requirements before prototype production.

Step 4 — Evaluate Samples

Test image quality, sustained frame rate, exposure behavior, host integration, and mechanical fit in the actual operating environment.

Step 5 — Approve the Production Configuration

Confirm the accepted sample, drawings, optical components, and operating configuration before proceeding with volume production.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q1: Is this an HD camera module?

This is a VGA-class camera module. Its listed video mode is 640 × 480 at 30fps. If your task requires reading small text or viewing fine details across a wide scene, evaluate a higher-resolution alternative.

Q2: Does it support MJPEG or H.264?

The current specification lists YUY2 only. Request a different configuration if your application requires compressed video output.

Q3: Does it support autofocus?

This version uses fixed focus. Define the intended working distance and verify sharpness with representative targets before approving the lens configuration.

Q4: Is it suitable for a battery-powered device?

Evaluate the complete module’s measured current in your intended operating mode. Battery-life estimates should also include the host processor, illumination and other system components.
