New series of Gigabit Ethernet cameras

Article Type: New products From: Sensor Review, Volume 30, Issue 1

The imaging source – a multinational manufacturer of industrial cameras – has just brought to market a new series of Gigabit Ethernet cameras, available in 27 models. The cameras ship in robust industrial casing with a C/CS lens mount and optionally with a trigger and digital I/Os. The color, monochrome and Bayer models are available in VGA, XGA, and SXGA resolutions.

The software support of the cameras leaves nothing to be desired: both programmers and end-users immediately feel at home. Getting started with the cameras is a matter of minutes and integrating them into existing applications takes only a few lines of code. Drivers for “LabView,” “Halcon,” “DirectX,” “Twain,” and “WDM” are included. All camera parameters and settings can be set via the shipped software. Furthermore, a number of automatic modes are available, which guarantee optimal image quality in varying light conditions.

The cameras ship with drivers for Windows XP/Visa, the SDK “IC Imaging Control” and “IC Capture”. The latter is a powerful end-user application, which allows all cameras parameters to be set, live video to be displayed, singular images and image sequences to be captured.
