As a professional manufacturer of visual imaging equipment, Kaimorui has specifically developed the CM8240G integrated ultra-long-zoom optical module, leveraging...Global shutter with no motion blur imagingWith480 Double hybrid ultra-long zoomWith two core technological advantages—integrated multi-level image optimization algorithms, full-standard compatibility for transmission, and a lightweight, industrially robust body—the solution is fully compatible with a wide range of professional applications, including drone gimbals, vehicle-mounted pan-tilt systems, border and coastal surveillance, sports event broadcasting, and automated production lines. It addresses the industry’s longstanding shortcomings—such as poor dynamic capture and limited field of view inherent in traditional imaging equipment—providing all-day, long-distance, high-precision, integrated visual capture solutions for diverse sectors.

I. Global shutter synchronization imaging architecture that eliminates motion blur and accurately captures high-speed dynamic targets.

Most integrated camera modules on the market use rolling-shutter sensors. When used to capture high-speed flying drones, vehicles speeding along highways, or rapidly moving workpieces on production lines, these sensors are highly prone to jelly-effect artifacts such as image stretching, tilting, and trailing, which can render captured footage unusable for evidence collection and distort quality-control data, posing significant challenges to project operations and forensic investigations. The Kaimor CM8240G is equipped with a 1/2.6-inch global-shutter CMOS image sensor that achieves simultaneous, instantaneous exposure across all pixels, effectively eliminating motion artifacts at the hardware level. This module comes standard with 2.3 million effective physical pixels and supports high-frame-rate video output at 1080P@60fps, ensuring that the outlines of fast-moving objects and fine textures are fully preserved. Even subtle details—such as the patterns on drone rotors, license plate characters on vehicles, and minute defects on components—can be clearly captured and frozen in time. The device features a mechanical ICR infrared filter switching mechanism and an adaptive AGC automatic gain control system with 36dB range. In low-light conditions—as low as 0.5 Lux during the day and 0.3 Lux at night—it requires no additional external lighting, delivering clean, low-noise images. The camera body integrates advanced image-processing algorithms including 2D/3D layered noise reduction, digital image stabilization, and wide dynamic range enhancement. Under challenging conditions such as backlighting, heavy fog, rain, snow, or vehicle-induced vibrations, the camera automatically balances light and dark areas, compensates for camera shake caused by vehicle movement, and ensures stable, consistent image quality in dynamic scenes. These core capabilities address a variety of critical real-world applications: monitoring low-altitude drone flights in airports and industrial parks to prevent unauthorized drone activity and fully preserve drone flight trajectories for forensic purposes; conducting mobile inspections from vehicles to instantly capture speeding violations; and enabling continuous, automated inspection of high-speed workpieces on factory assembly lines, significantly reducing manual re-inspection workload and improving detection accuracy.

II. 480x Hybrid Zoom Optical System: Freely switch between wide-angle and telephoto modes to eliminate blind spots in long-distance observation.

In large-scale monitoring scenarios such as forest fire prevention, coastal surveillance, and live broadcasts of major events, traditional solutions typically require deploying multiple fixed-focal-length devices in combination. This approach incurs high costs for equipment procurement, cabling, and ongoing maintenance, and it fails to simultaneously support both panoramic patrols and detailed remote inspections. The CM8240G is equipped with a 40x lossless optical zoom paired with a 12x digital enhancement, delivering an equivalent zoom capability of up to 480x. Its lens focal length ranges from 4.25mm to 170mm, providing a horizontal field of view that spans from a wide-angle panorama of 67.4° down to an ultra-long-telephoto view of just 2.0°. With this single camera unit, it’s possible to simultaneously perform comprehensive area patrols and identify details at distances of up to one kilometer. The lens features an infrared-corrected DC iris optical module with an F1.6 large aperture, ensuring sufficient light intake even in low-light conditions. Its shortest focusing distance is only 0.01 meters, enabling rapid, fully automatic focus for both close-up macro shots and distant observations. The device supports four focus modes—automatic, manual, intermittent, and preset—and comes with built-in memory for 192 different focus positions. Users can customize patrol routes and set up automated inspection schedules, making it ideal for 24/7 unattended surveillance applications. The zoom process is smooth and seamless, with no image degradation throughout the entire optical zoom range. Digital zoom further enhances the magnification of targeted areas, allowing for precise identification without the need to change lenses, thus covering all distance requirements with a single unit. In forest fire prevention projects, the wide-angle lens provides full coverage of forested areas, while the telephoto lens captures smoke plumes and fire outbreaks from several kilometers away. For border security and coastal defense, the camera can identify floating objects on the water surface and detect individuals crossing the border from long distances. In outdoor sports events, a single camera unit can effortlessly handle both panoramic views of the entire venue and close-up shots of athletes’ faces, significantly reducing the cost of setting up a complete broadcasting system.
