designing, developing, and manufacturing OEM cameras. The See3CAM_130 is the
latest member of the See3CAM family of USB 3.0 SuperSpeed camera products
launched by e-con Systems.
The See3CAM_130 is a 13 Megapixel camera that is based on the 1/3.2” AR1335
CMOS image sensor from Aptina™with Autofocus lens. The See3CAM_130 is also
backward compatible with the USB 2.0 High Speed interface, albeit at lower frame
rates.
The See3CAM_130 is UVC compliant camera and it does not require any drivers to
be installed on the PC. The native UVC drivers of Windows and Linux Operating
Systems (OS) will be compatible with this camera. e-con Systems also provides the
sample application that demonstrates some of the features of this camera.
However, this camera can utilize any DirectShow application such as Skype and so
on.

with the See3CAM_130 camera. e-CAMView is a typical DirectShow camera
application but customized to demonstrate some of the features of See3CAM_130.
