New automotive cameras from Tier IV bring advanced imaging to autonomous vehicles

TIER IV’s C1 and C2 cameras are designed to deliver exceptional image quality for autonomous vehicles, even in challenging lighting conditions. Featuring a high dynamic range of 120 dB and anti-reflective coatings, the cameras ensure reliable imaging data acquisition in any environment.

The C1 is a 2.5 MP high dynamic range camera and is equipped with LED flicker mitigation, it manages varying light conditions from traffic signals, signs, headlights, and taillights, enhancing operational efficiency. GMSL2 output interface ensures excellent image quality with high bandwidth and low latency. The C2 maintains the performance of the C1 while boosting resolution to 5.4 MP, enabling object recognition at greater distances and with a wider field of vision.

Both cameras are compatible with Autoware, TIER IV’s open-source autonomous driving operating system. Camera driver, ROS driver and multiple applications are available as open source software, streamlining their integration into the vehicle architecture.
Optimised for reliability and performance in diverse and challenging environmental conditions, the cameras offer high-precision imaging, robust sensor fusion capabilities and real-time data processing.

TIER IV’s automotive-grade cameras are being distributed in Europe exclusively by Digiflec, a UK supplier of autonomous imaging technologies, 3D Lidar sensors and digital services.
