Product Overview

The FSM:UAV-PAY camera module is built for demanding UAV payload applications that require sharp, detailed aerial imagery. Equipped with the Sony IMX678C 8 MP STARVIS 2 sensor and a 100° horizontal field of view, it delivers 4K streaming with excellent low-light and NIR performance. Designed on the FRAMOS FSM:GO platform, it integrates seamlessly with NVIDIA Jetson and NXP compute units, providing a scalable solution from prototype to production.

The FSM:UAV-PAY is a high-resolution payload camera module designed for UAV inspection, mapping, and agricultural monitoring. Powered by the Sony IMX678C 8 MP STARVIS 2 sensor with a normal 100° horizontal field of view, it delivers sharp 4K imagery, superior low-light sensitivity, and enhanced NIR performance for detailed aerial analysis.

Built on the FRAMOS FSM:GO platform, the module integrates seamlessly with embedded AI compute units such as NVIDIA Jetson and NXP i.MX. Its compact 1/1.8" format, PixelMate™ interface, and production-ready design make it an ideal choice for drone manufacturers and system integrators scaling from prototyping to full deployment.
