Stereolabs ZED-X-ONE-GS GMSL2 Global Shutter Cameras with 2.3MP Sensor, Hardware Sync and Narrow, Wide or No Lens

A stereo camera with a fixed baseline and lens set is the quickest route to depth, but it does not suit every robot. Some designs need a wider baseline, a different lens on each side or cameras spread around a machine. The Stereolabs ZED X One GS series covers those cases with a single global shutter camera that you can use alone, pair into a custom stereo rig or combine into a multi-camera surround view. Stereolabs describes it as a camera for flexible integration of stereo systems and multi-camera surround vision.

Every ZED X One GS uses a 1/2.6″ 2.3MP sensor with an electronically synchronised global shutter, so every pixel is exposed at the same moment and moving parts are captured without skew. Output runs at 1920 x 1200 at 60 fps, 1920 x 1080 at 60 fps in cropping mode or 960 x 600 at 120 fps in binning mode, in RAW10 or YUV 4:2:2, with 71.4 dB dynamic range. GMSL2 on a lockable FAKRA Z connector carries video and power over coax runs of up to 15 m to an NVIDIA Jetson Orin host, and hardware synchronisation aligns frames across cameras within 15 microseconds. A Bosch BMI088 six-axis IMU reports at 200 Hz.

The ZED X One GS range splits by lens. The ZED-X-ONE-GS-NARROW has a 4.6 mm f/2.0 lens and a 73° horizontal view, which puts more pixels on distant or small targets for picking and parcel work. The ZED-X-ONE-GS-WIDE has a 2.2 mm f/2.2 lens and a 110° horizontal view, suited to workcells, humanoid heads and surround-view rings. The ZED-X-ONE-GS-NO-LENS has no optic fitted, so you can match your own lens to the sensor, guided by its recommended lens chief ray angle of 0° ± 3°.

In practice the ZED X One GS series suits factory automation, logistics sortation and humanoid robots, plus any project building its own stereo pair. All three builds draw 0.89 W at 12 V over GMSL2, are rated from -20 °C to 55 °C at up to 90% relative humidity at 40 °C, and mount on four M4 threads or a 1/4″-20 adapter plate. Stereolabs lists CE, REACH, RoHS, TSCA and EMC compliance and a two-year warranty. These global shutter cameras capture through a ZED Link capture card or a GMSL2-equipped Jetson computer running Jetson Linux (L4T) v35.1 or newer.
