Overview

The DOMI DM5005A is a USB 2.0 UVC 1.2 3D Time-of-Flight camera platform built around a SigmaStar SoC and a QVGA MIPI depth module. It outputs point-cloud, depth and infrared data in RAW 12-bit format at up to 30 fps.

Two near-infrared options address different working distances. The Rev 1.0 datasheet specifies 0.2-2 m for the 940 nm version and 0.3-5 m for the 850 nm version. Both use a 320 × 240 depth frame and a 70° horizontal × 50° vertical field of view.

The 90.7 × 17.2 mm main board is supplied without an enclosure or heatsink, allowing OEM teams to design the mechanical and thermal solution around their device. This flexibility also means enclosure, heat dissipation, optical windows and laser-safety compliance must be validated at system level.

FAE accuracy note: The datasheet does not define whether the accuracy expression means the greater or smaller of 2% and 2.5 cm. It also omits target reflectivity, distance, ambient illumination, frame rate and temperature conditions. Confirm the acceptance criterion and test method with DOMI before design freeze.

Integration Guidance

Mechanical and thermal design

  • Reserve the 90.7 × 17.2 mm board envelope plus connector and cable clearance
  • Design a heatsink for the selected frame rate, duty cycle and ambient temperature
  • Keep the receive lens and VCSEL emission path free of enclosure vignetting

Optical and system validation

  • Match any cover window or band-pass filter to the chosen 850 nm or 940 nm version
  • Revalidate range and accuracy across target reflectivity, ambient light and motion
  • Complete laser-safety, EMC, thermal and enclosure compliance at end-product level

Confirm before production

  • Current SDK package, API, driver and operating-system compatibility
  • Depth calibration and compensation requirements after mechanical integration
  • USB bandwidth, output-mode combinations, latency and host-processing load
  • Connector definition, power-input limits, startup behavior and peak current
  • Operating temperature, storage conditions, ESD rating and product lifecycle status

Rev 1.0 does not publish laser class, operating temperature, ambient-light immunity, ingress protection, connector pinout, calibration flow or certification status. Request the latest integration package for production development.

FAQs

Does the DM5005A connect through USB 2.0 and UVC 1.2?

Yes. DM5005A uses a Micro USB hardware interface, USB 2.0 transport and the UVC 1.2 protocol.

Does DM5005A output point-cloud, depth and infrared data?

Yes. The Rev 1.0 datasheet lists point-cloud, depth and IR output, with a RAW 12-bit output format.

Can DM5005A deliver QVGA depth at up to 30 fps?

Yes. It supports 320 × 240 depth resolution and a maximum frame rate of 30 fps. Confirm the achievable rate for the selected output mode and host configuration.

Is the 940 nm DM5005A specified for 0.2-2 m ranging?

Yes. The 940 nm version is specified for a 0.2-2 m distance range. Validate it with the final optical window, target reflectivity and ambient-light conditions.

Is the 850 nm DM5005A specified for ranging up to 5 m?

Yes. The 850 nm version is specified for a 0.3-5 m distance range. The datasheet does not publish the target or lighting conditions for that limit.

Is an SDK available for Windows and Linux?

Yes. Rev 1.0 lists SDK support for Windows 7, Windows 8, Windows 10 and Linux. Confirm current operating-system versions, drivers and API availability before selecting the platform.

Can OEMs design a custom enclosure and heatsink for DM5005A?

Yes. The camera is supplied as an integration platform without the enclosure and heatsink. OEM teams can design both around their product, subject to optical, thermal and compliance validation.

Can DM5005A be evaluated for robotics, 3D measurement and spatial interaction?

Yes. Its QVGA depth, point-cloud and IR outputs make it a candidate for robotics, volume measurement, 3D reconstruction, face sensing and AR/VR prototypes. Final suitability must be qualified in the intended scene.

Does the DM5005A datasheet specify depth accuracy?

Yes. It states ≤2% or ≤2.5 cm. Because Rev 1.0 does not define the decision rule or test conditions, confirm the applicable acceptance criterion with DOMI for your working range.
