HSCAM

Company

Engineers by passion.

HSCAM GmbH designs and builds highly customizable Smart Industrial High-Speed Camera Systems in Leipzig, Germany — because every application has its own challenges. Cameras built to stream continuously, unattended, with measurement data captured on the same clock as every frame.

Who we are

Continuous streaming, not short bursts

Most high-speed cameras record a short, buffered burst to on-board memory, then need a slow offload before they can record again. HSCAM builds the opposite: cameras that stream continuously over standard interfaces, so an unpredictable event — a jam, a fault, a bad cut — doesn't need to be anticipated in advance to be captured.

The HSCAM STREAMER family does this today, in a real industrial deployment: a rolling mill recording every cut and every jam on a 140 m/s wire line, 24/7, with a week or more of triggered recordings kept on the installation's storage.

HSCAM NANO, currently in prototyping and evaluation, takes the same idea a step further — processing images directly on the sensor, so results can leave the camera before a full frame ever would.

Partnership

Built on patented VSoC technology from Fraunhofer IIS

HSCAM NANO's Vision System on Chip (VSoC) — the sensor and processors on a single die — is patented technology invented by Fraunhofer IIS. The camera's Edge AI (microcontroller and neural processing unit) is HSCAM's own addition; HSCAM designs the camera and system around the VSoC.

Origin

Born from a joint development

HSCAM STREAMER was developed jointly by tecVenture GmbH, GS Vitec GmbH and M.Rick Engineering. HSCAM GmbH's role is bringing that work to market — sales, support and deployment of what the development partnership builds. New development, including HSCAM NANO, still runs through tecVenture and M.Rick Engineering — currently NANO driver projects and further STREAMER customization projects.

Trade fairs

On the show floor

HSCAM exhibits at machine-vision trade fairs — here at Messe Vision, demonstrating synchronized multi-camera capture live on the booth.
