About Arducam V3Link camera extension solution
Arducam V3Link camera solution is developed and designed for high-speed and long-distance data transfer with multi-camera connected. Arducam consistently collaborates with Texas Instrument’s engineering team to provide you with the most adaptable, on-demand V3Link camera systems for various industrial applications.
We have created a versatile and cost-effective camera solution based on TI V3Link SerDes Solution. So far we have adapted several Arducam camera series on TI Development Board and Raspberry Pi Platforms. Towards the uprising range of adaption, we have achieved the camera solution adaption on NVIDIA Platforms currently. Breaking free from camera bundles, we opted for a radically different camera solution which is flexible and adaptable.
