CamElemente
CamElemente is a modular camera element framework designed to support interoperable imaging systems. It defines standard interfaces and mechanical form factors that allow sensors, optics, processing units, storage, and control circuitry to be swapped or upgraded without redesigning the device. The framework aims to accelerate prototyping, customization, and scalable production across research, robotics, and industrial photography.
Its architecture centers on four module types: sensor modules (CMOS/CCD with timing and calibration data), optics
CamElemente maintains open specifications and reference designs to foster interoperability. A governance body promotes backward compatibility,
Applications include research prototypes, autonomous machines, industrial inspection, and consumer devices that require flexible imaging hardware.
