About FRAMOS
FRAMOS develops embedded-vision components and complete camera systems for robotics, mobility, medical and industrial equipment. Its FSM:GO modules combine validated image sensors, matched optics, electrical interfaces, tuned image processing and open drivers for platforms including NVIDIA Jetson, NXP, Qualcomm and Raspberry Pi.
The range spans compact camera modules, rugged GMSL housings, RealSense industrial depth cameras, lenses and development adapters. Engineering services cover sensor and optical selection, focusing, calibration, image-quality tuning and custom mechanical design. FRAMOS supports projects from evaluation through European volume production, including navigation, identification, inspection and onboard analytics applications.

Timeline
Events
- 2026-06-01 - Market Signal - FRAMOS establishes co-CEO structure for embedded-vision expansion
Schönebeck retained responsibility for product and technology while adding the co-CEO role. FRAMOS said its strategy combines optics, sensors, processing and software in modular deployable camera systems. The broader executive team retained leadership across operations, people, sales and marketing.
Source - 2026-04-10 - Acquisition - FRAMOS acquires EMAC to expand North American embedded-vision capacity
EMAC contributes custom embedded-computing platforms and systems-integration services. The acquisition adds U.S. engineering, production and logistics capacity while keeping FRAMOS focused on imaging, optics and embedded vision. FRAMOS positioned the combined capability for application-specific Vision AI systems from sensor through embedded compute.
Source - 2025-10-01 - Partnership - FRAMOS and Restar form Sony image-sensor distribution joint venture
The venture took over Sony image-sensor and display distribution effective 1 October 2025. It was formed from ViMOS Technologies and serves Europe, the Middle East and North America. FRAMOS retained focus on 2D and 3D camera modules, edge processing and tailored imaging systems while the sister company handles distribution.
Source - 2025-09-10 - Capability - FRAMOS adds NVIDIA Holoscan Sensor Bridge support to D400e cameras
The integration sends D400e depth and RGB data directly into GPU memory through NVIDIA Holoscan. FRAMOS targets object recognition, collision avoidance, scene segmentation and spatial-AI workloads on Jetson AGX Orin and Jetson AGX Thor. D400e shares an optical configuration with RealSense D400, allowing the same Isaac Sim models to support virtual robotics testing.
