Compact Global Shutter Imaging

The ATC-HZ8305J-L uses a global shutter image sensor, making it a strong choice for applications where moving subjects, vibration, mobile platforms, conveyors, robotics, or traffic scenes can create distortion with rolling shutter cameras.

Global shutter capture helps preserve object shape during motion, giving system designers a more stable imaging option for machine vision, robotics, inspection, traffic monitoring, and industrial automation applications.

Small Form Factor for OEM Integration

At only 28.2 x 39 x 54.7 mm and approximately 41g, the ATC-HZ8305J-L is one of the more compact options for systems that need a zoom block camera but cannot fit a larger long-range camera module.

This makes it useful for embedded systems, small robotics platforms, compact surveillance devices, inspection equipment, and OEM imaging products where size and weight matter.

5x Optical Zoom with 1080p60 Output

The integrated autofocus zoom lens provides a focal range of 5mm to 25mm, giving the camera a horizontal field of view from approximately 52.3° wide to 10.9° telephoto. With 5x optical zoom and 12x digital zoom, the ATC-HZ8305J-L supports flexible viewing in compact imaging systems.

Focus control options include Auto, Interval, One Shot, Manual, and Preset, giving integrators practical control for fixed installations, remote viewing systems, inspection equipment, and automated imaging platforms.

Flexible Video Output Options

The ATC-HZ8305J-L supports a wide range of output formats, including HD-SDI, EX-SDI, LVDS, and CVBS, making it a flexible option for both modern and legacy video systems.

Digital output supports up to 1080p at 60fps over HD-SDI, LVDS, or EX-SDI. That makes this camera a practical choice for surveillance systems, industrial video platforms, embedded camera designs, machine vision equipment, and custom OEM camera integration.

Advanced Image Processing

The ATC-HZ8305J-L includes image enhancement tools designed to improve usability in real-world environments:

• True WDR for high-contrast scenes
• D-WDR with Low, Middle, and High settings
• 3D-DNR and 2D-DNR for cleaner images
• Defog for haze, mist, dust, or reduced-visibility environments
• BLC and HLC for backlight and highlight compensation
• Digital image stabilization for vibration-prone platforms
• Privacy masking and motion detection

These features help the camera maintain clear, usable video in environments where lighting, glare, motion, or haze can affect image quality.

Remote Camera Control

The ATC-HZ8305J-L supports UART RS232-TTL control with automatic protocol detection for VISCA, Pelco-D, and Pelco-P. Supported baud rates include 2400, 4800, 9600, 19200, 38400, 57600, and 115200bps.

This makes the camera easier to integrate into embedded controllers, inspection platforms, compact robotics systems, surveillance devices, and OEM products that require remote zoom, focus, exposure, and image control.
