FORT WORTH, TX / ACCESS Newswire / April 1, 2026 / Vadzo Imaging, a provider of embedded vision cameras, today launched its HDR camera portfolio for retail applications, featuring the Falcon series (USB 3.2 Gen 1 UVC Camera Portfolio), Bolt series (MIPI CSI-2 Camera Portfolio), and Innova series (ONVIF GigE Camera Portfolio). Designed to address the imaging challenges of modern retail environments, bright signage, reflective surfaces, dim aisles, and dynamic shopper behavior, the portfolio delivers high-resolution HDR imaging across point-of-sale counters, interactive kiosks, smart shelves, and in-store analytics deployments.
The Falcon series delivers HDR USB 3.2 Gen 1 UVC camera solutions for checkout monitoring, shelf analytics, and kiosk integration. The Bolt MIPI series provides compact, low-power MIPI camera solutions for embedded retail devices, edge-based analytics, and space-constrained smart shelf installations. The Innova ONVIF GigE camera series enables large-store monitoring, multi-camera checkout analytics, and networked retail environments with PoE single-cable deployment and ONVIF-compliant streaming.
Together, the three series allow retailers and system integrators to deploy imaging across every store zone, from shelf-edge to entrance, within a unified hardware and SDK ecosystem.
Falcon Series (USB 3.2 Gen 1 UVC Camera Series): Checkout, Kiosk, and Shelf-Level Imaging
Falcon-821CRS – Onsemi AR0821 4K HDR USB 3.2 Gen 1 Camera
The Falcon-821CRS HDR USB UVC Camera is built on the Onsemi AR0821 DRPix BSI sensor (1/1.7″, 2.1 µm), delivering 8.3MP (3848×2168) imaging with embedded HDR exceeding 140 dB. Its extreme dynamic range handles simultaneous bright promotional displays and dim shelf areas without clipping or loss of detail, making it suited for checkout counters, interactive signage, and analytics-driven retail zones where lighting conditions are severe and variable. USB 3.2 Gen 1 camera with UVC compliance enables plug-and-play deployment across Windows, Linux, and embedded platforms.
