Vision 2011: IDS presents the new USB 3 uEye CP in a multi-camera system |  Visitors at the Vision trade fair 2011 were truly amazed: IDS Imaging Development Systems was displaying a multi-camera demo system featuring eight USB 3 uEye CP cameras.
All eight USB 3 cameras were equipped with a 1.3 Megapixel sensor from e2v and delivered 25 frames per second each; resulting in a total data load of 250 MByte/s. This data was transferred via one single USB 3.0 cable into the host PC without any losses.
The CPU load was a mere 20 percent despite the high amount of data, thanks to data preprocessing in the camera. |

USB 3 uEye CP - The next generation of IDS uEye cameras with USB 3.0 |  Compact, fast and lightweight: The new USB 3.0 uEye CP from IDS will certainly set trends in the market. The powerful camera offers a bandwidth of 400 MByte/s via USB 3.0 as well as trigger, flash, pulse width modulation and 2 GPIOs, which can also be used as a serial interface. With its lockable Micro USB connector the camera is perfectly suited even for rough environments. Power is supplied via the USB bus, hence an extra power cable is obsolete.
An easy installation for both Windows and Linux is guaranteed via plug & play and the IDS camera manager. Initially the USB 3.0 uEye CP is available with three different sensors with resolutions ranging from VGA to 5 Megapixel and offering monochrome and color variants.
The USB 3.0 uEye cameras will be available in the first quarter of 2112. |

The uEye CP: An ultra-compact GigE camera with PoE |  Powered over Ethernet -- our new industrial camera makes an additional power supply cable redundant!
At just 29 x 29 x 41 mm, the GigE uEye CP is one of the smallest models to feature this technology, which can supply the camera's power via the data cable. At the same time, the GigE interface allows very high data rates and cable lengths of up to 100 meters. For the first time, the uEye CP combines the simplicity of a USB uEye with the performance of GigE: It is connected with just one cable and offers true plug-and-play ease of use. For users of analog cameras, the compact uEye is an optimal alternative -- it combines all of the advantages of digital technology in the popular housing size of analog models. |

uEye USB camera captures sailplane airflow (UI-1240SE-C) |  In order for a sailplane to glide long distances, the air has to flow perfectly around the wings. This can be tested using highly expensive wind tunnels – or three meters of woolen yarn and a USB camera.
The camera model UI-1240SE-C features our new, powerful CMOS sensor with 1.3 Megapixel resolution and Global Shutter readout - a feature usually only provided by CCD sensors. In this application, a DirectShow-based software captures the video with up to 25 frames per second. |

uEye HDR Cameras (Episode 1) - Fundamentals |  When you use conventional CCD or CMOS sensors to capture scenes with a large dynamic range, often parts of the image will be overexposed. Image information in overexposed areas is completely lost.
In this video, we introduce a new uEye camera with an HDR sensor. This sensor is capable of capturing images with an impressive dynamic range of 120 dB. This it 1000 times as much as conventional sensors can deliver. |

uEye HDR vs. CCD sensor - Lightbulb |  This video demonstrates the dynamic range of uEye HDR cameras. The left camera has an HDR sensor while the right model uses a conventional CCD sensor. Both cameras are looking directly into a lightbulb whose brightness changes continuously.
While the CCD sensor quickly produces overexposure and blooming, the HDR camera still shows all the details. |
