Manifold - NextVision Camera M.2 Key-B USB3 Adapter
Manifold is a compact M.2 Key-B adapter that converts Video and RS-232 control signals from a NextVision camera payload into a single USB 3 interface. It captures the camera’s video output and converts it to USB 3 for direct connection to embedded or edge compute platforms, eliminating the need for external video capture devices. Simultaneously, RS-232 command and telemetry signals are converted and carried over the same USB link, consolidating video and control into one structured connection.
Designed for reliable embedded integration, Manifold delivers stable high-speed transport with typical end-to-end video latency of approximately 150 ms. By combining Video-to-USB3 video conversion and RS-232-to-USB control integration in a board-level M.2 form factor, it reduces cabling complexity, minimizes external hardware, and streamlines system architecture.
Low-Latency, Driver-Free Video
Streams HDMI video over USB 3 with approximately 150 ms end-to-end latency. UVC-compliant operation enables plug-and-play functionality on most operating systems without requiring custom drivers, simplifying deployment and reducing integration time.
Precise RS-232 Camera Control
Integrated RS-232 to USB conversion allows full command and telemetry control over the same USB connection as video. Manage zoom, configuration, and payload parameters with reliable serial communication consolidated into a single interface.
Compact, Low-SWaP Integration
Designed in an M.2 Key-B form factor, Manifold delivers a compact, low size, weight, and power solution ideal for embedded, UAV, and edge compute platforms. Eliminate external capture devices and serial adapters while reducing system complexity and footprint.
