New NTSC Camera Module from Nippon Chemi-Con – Improved Night Vision Without System Modification
Enhanced Image Quality for Existing NTSC Camera Systems
With the new NCM12-FF, Nippon Chemi-Con expands its portfolio of rugged camera modules for industrial equipment, commercial vehicles, and mobile machinery. The key advantage is significantly improved image quality under low-light conditions while maintaining full compatibility with existing analog NTSC systems. No changes to wiring, installation space, or system architecture are required.
Clear Visibility – Even in Low-Light Conditions
Many industrial machines and commercial vehicles continue to rely on analog NTSC camera systems. However, conventional cameras often reach their limits at dusk or during nighttime operation.
The NCM12-FF has been specifically developed to dramatically improve visibility in these situations. Thanks to optimized image sensor control and Nippon Chemi-Con's extensive expertise in optical design, the module delivers brighter, clearer, and more detailed images—even at an illumination level of just 0.2 lux (moonlight)—while remaining fully compatible with existing NTSC infrastructure.
Key Features
- Direct replacement for existing NTSC camera modules
- Significantly improved low-light and nighttime performance
- HDR (High Dynamic Range) up to 120 dB
- Wide-angle lens with 104° horizontal field of view
- Automatic 50/60 Hz flicker compensation
- Built-in Flash memory for stand-alone operation
- IP67 protection for harsh operating environments
- Compact housing (23 × 23 × 28 mm, excluding cable)
- Manufactured in Japan under automotive-grade quality standards
Designed for Demanding Applications
The NCM12-FF is ideally suited for:
- Commercial vehicles and buses
- Construction equipment
- Agricultural machinery
- Forklifts and material handling equipment
- Municipal vehicles
- Industrial monitoring and driver assistance systems
Because the module is fully NTSC-compatible, it can be integrated into existing systems without replacing monitors, control units, or wiring, making it a cost-effective upgrade for improved visibility.
Part of a Growing Camera Portfolio
In addition to the new NCM12-FF, Nippon Chemi-Con continues to expand its camera portfolio for automotive and off-highway applications. The product range already includes HD and multi-megapixel camera modules with modern interfaces such as GMSL, GVIF, and A-PHY (Valens), as well as solutions supporting transmission distances of up to 40 meters. All camera modules are manufactured in Japan and engineered to meet demanding requirements for reliability, vibration resistance, and environmental durability.
