# Vibration Tolerance

## OAK4

OAK4 cameras (running on RVC4) are designed for harsh environments where vibration and impacts are common (e.g. construction
equipment, mobile robots, and factory installations). Both [OAK4-D](hw-catalog://OAK 4 D) and [OAK4-S](hw-catalog://OAK 4 S) were
validated in pre-production climate, vibration, and mechanical shock testing.

### Environmental Qualification Standards

OAK4 cameras were qualified according to the following environmental test standards:

| Test | Standard |
| --- | --- |
| Climate + Vibration | ISO 19014-3:2018 Section 5.6 |
| Mechanical Shock | ISO 19014-3:2018 Section 5.7 |
| Thermal Shock | ISO 19014-3:2018 Section 5.9 |

### Vibration Qualification

OAK4 cameras were qualified according to ISO 19014-3:2018 Section 5.6.

Test conditions

 * Random vibration
 * Frequency: 10 Hz to 2000 Hz
 * Duration: 8 hours per axis
 * Axes: X, Y, Z
 * Temperature: -20°C to +50°C
 * Relative humidity: 93%

### Mechanical Shock Qualification

OAK4 cameras were qualified according to ISO 19014-3:2018 Section 5.7.

Test conditions

 * Half-sine pulse
 * Peak acceleration: 30 g
 * Pulse duration: 18 ms
 * Axes: X, Y, Z
 * 3 positive and 3 negative shocks per axis
 * Total shocks: 18

### Vibration Results

Across the OAK4 validation tests, the following outcomes were reported:

 * Performance in depth measurement remained stable during and after testing.
 * No mechanical degradation was observed.
 * Calibration remained stable after environmental qualification.
 * OAK4 devices are qualified for vibration up to 2000 Hz and 30 g mechanical shock.

For operating temperature ranges and thermal shock qualification, see the [Operating
Temperature](article://hardware.environmental.operating-temperature) documentation.

### Vibration tolerance

RVC2-based OAK cameras are designed for industrial environments where vibration resistance is required. These devices have been
tested according to EN 60068-2-6:2008.

The following camera families were tested:

 * OAK-D Pro (indirectly also OAK-D S2, OAK-D Pro W, OAK-D W)
 * OAK-D Pro PoE (indirectly also OAK-D S2 PoE, OAK-D W PoE, OAK-D Pro W PoE)
 * OAK-D PoE

Indirectly means that the cameras are mechanically and electrically identical, differing only in the installed image sensors or
additional illumination hardware.

### Vibration Results

[Vibration Results here](https://www.luxonis.com/assets/marketing/certificates/Vibration_Test_Results.pdf).

We tested the cameras before and after the vibration stress test to determine whether any degradation occurred.

The following parameters were verified:

 * Camera focus – Passed
 * Camera angles (change below 0.5°) – Passed
 * Stereo depth accuracy – Passed

### Vibration Report

[Vibration Report here](https://www.luxonis.com/assets/marketing/certificates/Vibration_Test_Report.pdf).

According to EN 60068-2-6:2008, the devices underwent sinusoidal vibration testing:

 * Frequency: 5 Hz to 200 Hz
 * Sweep rate: 1 octave per minute
 * Acceleration amplitude: 50 m/s²
 * Axes: X, Y, Z

## Testing reliability

All vibration and mechanical stress tests have been performed by SIQ, an independent third-party testing laboratory.
