DM5005A QVGA USB 2.0 UVC ToF Depth Camera
DM5005A brings 320 × 240 depth sensing, infrared images and point-cloud data to your host through USB 2.0 and UVC 1.2. Choose the 940 nm version for a 0.2–2 m working range or the 850 nm version for 0.3–5 m, and build the camera into your own enclosure.
Key Highlights
- Give robot perception and measurement software depth, IR and point-cloud inputs from a QVGA ToF camera.
- Choose a working range for your sensing area with separate 940 nm and 850 nm configurations.
- Connect the camera to a host through Micro USB using USB 2.0 and UVC 1.2.
- Design the enclosure and cooling around your equipment using the 90.7 × 17.2 mm main board.
Overview
DM5005A combines a QVGA MIPI depth module with a SigmaStar processing platform and a USB host connection. Its depth, infrared and point-cloud outputs give your software scene information for object localization, measurement and spatial interaction.
The camera supports up to 30 fps with a 70° horizontal × 50° vertical field of view. The 940 nm and 850 nm versions serve different working-distance requirements, so you can select the optical configuration around the space your application observes.
The board is supplied for integration into your product. You provide the enclosure and heatsink, with room for the optical apertures, USB cable and thermal path.

Applications
Robot perception
Use depth and point-cloud data as inputs to object localization, obstacle perception and manipulation software. The USB connection provides a route into a host-based robot vision pipeline.
3D measurement and reconstruction
Bring depth maps and point-cloud coordinates into shape-capture, reconstruction and calibrated dimensioning workflows. Plan camera placement around the target size, working distance and measurement region.
Gesture and spatial interaction
Provide depth and IR inputs to gesture, presence and spatial-interaction software. Choose the wavelength version around the user region and installation distance.

Integration
Connect the camera to your host
Plan the USB connection and host application around the depth, IR or point-cloud data your project uses. Windows and Linux SDK options provide a starting point for camera access and development. Include your operating-system version and required output in the project brief so we can discuss the software configuration.
Build the optical and thermal assembly
Reserve the board envelope together with space for the connector, cable and heatsink. Keep the receive lens and VCSEL emission path clear of enclosure edges. Match the cover window to the selected 850 nm or 940 nm version, and include the installed optics in calibration and measurement checks.
