About SJ20 Dual Lens Action Camera

Ang SJ20 Dual Lens usa ka modular nga action camera nga gihimo alang sa pagrekord sa adlaw ug sa gabii. Ang kamera motimbang og ubos sa 150 ka gramo ug adunay sukod nga 7.04 by 5.03 by 2.63 sentimetro. Ang ikaduhang lente nga adunay lahi nga light sensing element makakuha og tin-aw nga mga hulagway sa mangitngit nga kahimtang. Ang module interface sa kilid modawat og mga baterya ug mga bracket nga magpalugway sa oras sa pagrekord ug magdugang og bag-ong mga porma sa pagrekord. Ang metal nga lawas makapamenos sa sobrang pag-init panahon sa taas nga mga sesyon. Ang tanang mga setting gikontrol pinaagi sa 2.0 ka pulgada nga touch screen. Ang kamera makarekord og 4K nga video sulod sa labing menos usa ka oras.

Unique Properties
SJ20 is the world's first modularized dual-lens action camera, weighing less than 150 g. The add-in second night shot lens with robust nighttime light sensing and capturing feature solves the pain point of failing to capture premium nighttime video and photos. It also supports the scalability of more than one module including modular batteries and accumulation mounting, which not only extends battery life, but also reduces burden in location shooting.
Dimensions & Packaging
Overall dimensions 7.04cm*5.03cm*2.63cm, weighing less than 150g.

Production Technology
SJ20 provides users with two lenses respectively for day and night recording.The second night shot lens comes with a standalone enhanced light sensing element, which can capture clear images even in dimming light condition. Users can switch different lenses to capture high quality images according to diverse environments. All operations can be done on the 2.0" LCD touch screen, which is as easy to use as a smartphone. The camera has a module interface on the side and can be connected to modules such as batteries and backets to extend the duration and improve recording forms. Its metal body alleviates the overheating problem caused by long hours of recording.
Design Challenge
From the time of project initiation and with the exterior design plan fixed, the greatest challenge we had is how to combine function with appearance. We tried out different combinations of chips, sensors and components in order to present the ideal product intended for our consumers.
Research
Through the research of primary action cameras available in the market, we guarantee the daytime shooting quality and focus on night shooting performance, and replace the traditional design with modularized design, which not only improves image quality and renovates the way how user interacts with the camera, but also broadens scenarios and user-friendly feature.
Inspiration
Single-lens action cameras have good performance at daytime while with poor image quality at nighttime. However, low light environment as a common life scenario shouldn’t be ignored, we want to provide users with better quality of night footage. Therefore, a powerful low light sensing lens is necessary. As an outdoor equipment, the battery life of action cameras is also worth consideration. Besides, it should be easy to use.
Project Duration
This project proceeded to the preliminary design phase in August 2022, prototyping will be completed in February 2023, and the project will be finalized in May 2023.
Operation Flow
The camera can at least record 4K video for 1 hour and the add-in battery module supports the minimum extension of 3-hour shooting. With a powered selfie stick connected, SJ20 can work up to 10 hours. SJ20 can be quickly connected through Type-C cable to PC for uploading files, or to a cellphone via WiFi access. Downloading SJCAM Zone App permits one-touch file download and remote camera control.
