cation link between the camera head and a connected
CSx series Wi-Fi enabled monitor. Advanced on-camera
sensors convey valuable information about the in-pipe
environment.
Included TruSense Sensors

The TiltSense inclinometer measures the camera’s de-
gree of tilt and displays it on a CSx series Wi-Fi enabled
monitor, giving you a useful indicator of the camera’s
angle as it lays inside the pipe.
HDR Image Sensor
The high dynamic range (HDR) image sensor expands
the camera’s dynamic range, allowing a greater ratio of
bright and dark areas to be displayed in the same image
at the same time without reducing visibility. The result is
superior clarity and detail, allowing you to quickly and
easily identify problem areas.
