Use Case
The 1.6 MP Blackfly S is the high-frame-rate small-format option in the USB3 line: 226 fps at 1440 × 1080 makes it suitable for motion capture, web inspection and pick-and-place verification where throughput matters more than resolution. The 12 mm-tall body with CS-mount fits the confined clearances typical of machine-tool and end-effector mounting.
