# MV-CU016-10GC — 1.6MP Area Scan Camera, GigE, IMX296, Color, with PoE

> The CU series is designed with low power-consuming platform and stable performance, which creates a universal industrial camera product that satisfies the requirements for stability and necessary functions, helping users to obtain vision applications more easily. With the built-in ISP algorithms like wide dynamic range, noise reduction and sharpness, it can be flexibly adjusted according to the user’s actual scenarios, so as to minimize external interference, stabilize imaging, and reduce the burden on the back-end algorithm.
