D-Robotics RDK GS130W/GS130WI Binocular Stereo Global Shutter Camera Module, 1280x1080@120fps MIPI CSI-2

Overview

The D-Robotics RDK GS130W / GS130WI is a binocular stereo global shutter camera module for robotic vision, machine vision inspection, and real-time motion monitoring. It is based on a MIPI interface and uses two SC132GS global shutter sensors with binocular synchronous exposure and external triggering. It supports a single-channel resolution of 1280×1080 with a maximum output frame rate of 120 fps, and features high dynamic range (HDR), 40 dB signal-to-noise ratio, and 850/940 nm near-infrared enhancement capabilities.

Key Features

• Dual global shutter sensors: 2 × SC132GS (1/4-inch CMOS, Global Shutter) with binocular synchronous exposure and external triggering.
• High-speed stereo capture: 1280 × 1080, up to 1280×1080@120FPS.
• Optics: 1.75 mm focal length, F2.0 aperture; Field of View (FOV) Diagonal 157.2° / Horizontal 96.8° / Vertical 115.6° ±3°.
• Low-noise imaging: 40 dB SNR; supports HDR.
• MIPI RAW output: MIPI CSI-2, 8/10/12-bit RAW.
• Robust structure: Semi-enclosed metal housing designed to enhance durability, reduce deformation-related accuracy loss, and improve heat dissipation.
• IMU option (GS130WI only): Integrated ICM-42688-P 6-axis IMU for real-time, synchronous linear acceleration and angular velocity data (for use cases such as camera pose estimation, collision detection, and robotic motion monitoring).

Compatibility & Setup Notes

• Compatibility comparison: GS130W is compatible with RDK X5 and RDK S100/S100P; GS130WI only supports RDK X5 and does not support RDK S100/S100P.
• Connection note: Do not reverse the connections; otherwise the left and right images will be swapped, which can cause errors in the binocular algorithm.
• RDK X5 connection: No expansion board required; the camera module can directly connect to RDK X5.
• RDK S100(P) connection (GS130W): Requires an RDK S100(P) camera expansion board.

Details

Pair the stereo camera with the RDK X5 for MIPI CSI-2 capture and robotics vision development.

RDK S100(P) support is available for GS130W setups (an expansion board may be required).

GS130W/GS130WI combines dual global shutter sensors with synchronized stereo capture for fast motion scenes.

Two variants are available: GS130W and GS130WI, with GS130WI adding an integrated 6-axis IMU.

A quick spec comparison helps choose between the longer-baseline GS130W and the more compact GS130WI.

Clear wiring guidance helps connect the module to RDK X5 or RDK S100(P) platforms and avoid swapped connectors.

Stereo depth output supports distance measurement and obstacle-aware robotic perception workflows.

Point-cloud visualization in RViz enables rapid validation of depth quality during development.

GS130WI includes a 6-axis IMU for synchronized acceleration and angular velocity data alongside stereo capture.

A semi-enclosed metal housing improves durability and helps maintain mechanical stability for stereo accuracy.

Global shutter capture reduces motion artifacts compared with rolling shutter in fast-moving inspection scenes.

Mechanical drawings provide mounting dimensions for enclosure design and robot integration.

Connector callouts and overall dimensions simplify cable routing and placement in compact builds.
