CameVision EGO: a stereo SOM Camemake builds for egocentric robotics
Brand: Camemake
SKU:CV-EGO01-OS
Module program: CameVision (ODM PCBs and ODM finished products; OEM when the family does not fit)
Product: https://www.camemake.eu/shop/cv-ego01-os-camevision-ego-dual-global-shutter-ai-stereo-camera-2414

Why this module exists
Egocentric robotics needs first-person stereo that can leave the lab without a host PC on a trolley. USB stereo sticks still assume a laptop, a Jetson backpack, or a workstation. When the interesting frames happen on a moving body (mobile manipulator, head-worn rig, handheld teaching pass), the camera has to carry sync, inertial sense, compute, radio, and local storage with it.
CameVision EGO is Camemake’s evaluation double-PCB in that class: a commercial stereo system-on-module you put in a housing, not a UVC webcam you hope the host will keep up with.

Baseline, exact sensor part numbers, FPS, and FOV are set per ODM/OEM configuration. Camemake confirms those on the quote rather than publishing one number that only fits a single build.
Manufacturer story: one platform, many camera counts
EGO is the double-camera evaluation unit in a wider CameVision module program Camemake designs and manufactures:
- Single: monocular PCB for documentation, wrist/tool views, or monocular VIO
- Double (EGO): hardware-synced stereo + dual IMU (default for SLAM, VIO, egocentric stereo)
- Triple: stereo plus a context camera on one time base
- 5-fold: timed array for backpack wearables
- 9-camera: near-surround workplace capture with array-level calibration
All five PCB counts are available as ODM (Camemake platform, your brand, your housing, your volume). Finished goods on the same family (stereo headset, cap, PPE helmet, 5-fold array + backpack, handheld teaching gripper) are also ODM. When nothing in the family fits, Camemake runs OEM: full PCB, optics, mechanics, and firmware, then production on the same lines.
That is the Camemake angle: direct manufacturer with Belgium engineering support, China production, Hong Kong HQ. Design, assembly, optical alignment, and QA live in-house, with serial tracking, factory extrinsics for stereo and multi-camera boards, and volume paths from evaluation MOQ 10 up through production MOQs.
Factory and OEM path
Camemake’s stated process for this class of work:
- Brief: camera count, baseline, host, cable length, environment, certification needs
- Configuration: sensor, shutter, optics, interface (CSI / USB / GMSL), mechanical envelope, quote
- Samples: boards and housing if needed, calibration files with serials
- Production: SMT / COB / CSP on Camemake lines, QA, serials, volume
For funded camera startups, Camemake Lens (Shenzhen R&D center) adds lab, cleanroom, and on-site engineers with 0% equity; when you ship, you produce on Camemake’s line.
What teams use it for
Typical Camemake-facing jobs for EGO and the CameVision family:
- Handheld teaching passes so a manipulator learns from first-person stereo (UMI-style gripper ODM on the same platform)
- Mobile-base SLAM / VIO without a companion PC
- Wearable logging for policy learning and imitation (hours of first-person stereo plus IMU, stored locally)
- ODM wearables (headset, cap, helmet, backpack array) when the product is already designed and needs brand + volume
