Global Shutter Imaging for Motion-Critical Applications

The ATC-HZ5510C-LC uses a global shutter image sensor, making it a strong choice for applications where moving objects, vibration, mobile platforms, conveyors, or traffic scenes can create distortion with rolling shutter cameras.

Global shutter capture helps preserve object shape during motion, making this model useful for machine vision, robotics, UAV imaging, traffic monitoring, industrial inspection, and other systems where clean frame capture matters.

10x Optical Zoom in a Compact Design

The integrated autofocus zoom lens provides a focal range of 5.1mm to 51mm, giving the camera a horizontal field of view from approximately 54.0° wide to 4.9° telephoto. With 10x optical zoom and 12x digital zoom, the ATC-HZ5510C-LC supports both wider scene coverage and tighter long-distance detail.

Focus control options include Auto, Interval, One Push, Manual, and Preset, giving integrators flexible control for fixed installations, automated systems, remote-controlled imaging platforms, and OEM camera designs.

LVDS and CVBS Output Flexibility

The ATC-HZ5510C-LC supports both LVDS and CVBS video output, making it a practical option for systems that need digital HD video and analog compatibility in the same compact block camera platform.

LVDS output supports up to 720p at 60/50fps, while CVBS provides useful compatibility for legacy analog video systems, service monitors, and existing CCD-style workflows. This makes the camera especially useful for integrators upgrading from analog systems while still needing flexible output options.

External Sync for Multi-Camera Systems

The ATC-HZ5510C-LC includes internal / external synchronization support, which can be valuable for multi-camera imaging systems, machine vision, robotics, industrial automation, and synchronized inspection environments.

For OEM systems where timing matters, external sync gives designers another layer of control beyond standard video output and camera communication.

Advanced Image Processing

The ATC-HZ5510C-LC includes image enhancement tools designed to improve video usability in difficult lighting and environmental conditions:

• True WDR with adjustable level, contrast, and brightness
• D-WDR with Low, Middle, and High settings
• 3D-DNR and 2D-DNR for cleaner low-light images
• Defog with Off, On, and Auto modes
• BLC and HLC for backlight and highlight compensation
• Digital image stabilization for vibration-prone platforms
• Mechanical Day/Night for color daytime imaging and black-and-white night operation
• Privacy masking and motion detection

These features help the camera maintain clearer, more usable images when dealing with glare, haze, vibration, low light, and high-contrast scenes.

Presets and Remote Camera Control

The ATC-HZ5510C-LC supports 256 position presets for zoom and focus, 16 memory presets, and custom preset control, making it useful for repeatable camera positioning and stored imaging views.

The camera also supports UART RS232-TTL control with automatic protocol detection for VISCA, Pelco-D, Pelco-P, and Hitachi. Supported baud rates include 2400, 4800, 9600, 19200, 38400, 57600, and 115200bps.
