Discover Vision Component's new VC DragonCam, which utilizes the power and price efficiency of a quad-core processor.

Vision Components based its new VC DragonCam on the Qualcomm Snapdragon 410 processor. The company uses the computing power and price efficiency of a quad-core processor. The VC DragonCam board camera integrates an image sensor, various customary interfaces, and the processor, which runs a Debian-based operating system, on a small 65 x 40 mm footprint. This makes the programmable embedded vision system suitable for OEM designs. VC DragonCam features twelve GPIOs, 1 GB memory, and up to 32 GB flash memory, with standard interfaces such as GBit Ethernet and RS-232 integrated onboard. Two adapter boards with additional interfaces provided as conventional sockets enable connection of peripherals for fast prototyping.
