Industrial cameras
23/07/2024
Compact, cost-effective and with exceptional image quality in low ambient light, IDS Imaging Development Systems GmbH claims to be the first industrial camera manufacturer to offer the 2 MP sensor IMX662 in both colour and monochrome versions. The sensors belong to Sony’s Starvis 2 series and are designed for maximum light sensitivity. They are now available either as compact uEye+ XCP models or as board-level versions in the uEye+ XLS series.
Both camera families are characterised by their compact design and are therefore suitable for embedded applications, for example. While uEye+ XCP models have a completely closed housing measuring 29 × 29 × 17 mm with a C-mount lens holder, the uEye+ XLS models measuring just 29 × 29 × 7 mm are available as board-level cameras with or without a C/CS- or S-mount lens holder.
The new Universal Serial Bus 3.0 (USB 3.0) industrial cameras deliver particularly impressive results when used in low-light conditions.
In addition to the special, highly sensitive pixel technology, customers benefit from another distinctive characteristic, a rolling shutter sensor with an anti-reflection coating, which further improves the image quality. As a result of this feature, disruptive reflections known as lens flare are reduced or completely avoided within the camera.
In addition, the new models offer excellent value for money. The company plans to make the entire range of Sony Starvis 2 sensors available in different camera families in the future. This will provide customers with the greatest possible flexibility when selecting these light-sensitive sensors.
