The Goobuy UC-001 is a night vision instrument. Engineered with a massive 1/1.8" Starlight Sensor, it captures photons that the human eye misses. Our proprietary analog circuit ensures latency stays below 10 milliseconds, giving FPV pilots the confidence to fly fast through forests or tunnels at midnight.
The Goobuy CC-001 is a 21×21 mm ultra-compact 16g starlight analog CVBS camera module delivering 960×580 video output at 0.001 Lux sensitivity and 110° DFOV—designed for FPV drones, UAV night flight, robotics and embedded low-light inspection.
With a miniature 21×21 mm footprint and analog CVBS output, the Goobuy CC-001 camera provides near-zero latency video—perfect for real-time FPV piloting, night-time unmanned inspection and low-light robotics navigation. Its 0.001 Lux starlight sensor captures usable color imagery in near-dark environments, while the wide 110° DFOV supports situational awareness in tight-space and drone operations.
Plug-and-play, ultra-light and optimized for weight-sensitive platforms, the Goobuy CC-001 allows seamless integration into drones, embedded robotic units and inspection systems without the noise, blur or latency of conventional cameras.
Product Overview
The Goobuy CC-001 is a 21×21 mm miniature starlight CVBS camera module designed for FPV UAV, UGV/robots, and industrial low-light inspections. Unlike IR-illuminated cameras, this module preserves natural scene colors at dusk/dawn and under starlight, enabling clearer target identification and safer navigation.Native analog CVBS output integrates directly with common FPV transmitters/AV links for near-zero-lag, real-time video. Novel 21×21mm CVBS Starlight Embedded Night Vision Camera Module (model Number: CC-001) is specifically engineered for drone and UAV applications requiring exceptional low-light imaging capabilities. With an ultra-sensitive 0.001lux sensor, this mini camera ensures clear, crisp images in near-total darkness—ideal for night surveillance, search and rescue, and inspection tasks.
Why Choose Analog CVBS for Night Vision?
While digital cameras offer higher resolution, they suffer from latency and signal breakup in low signal conditions. The Goobuy UC-001 Starlight Core delivers zero-latency (<10ms) analog video, which degrades gracefully into "snow" rather than freezing completely. This safety margin is critical for FPV pilots flying in pitch-black environments or rescue drones operating beyond visual line of sight (BVLOS).
