The new generation of USB 3 uEye CP cameras is the totally refined successor of the proven CP camera family. Positioned at the high-end of IDS’ USB 3.0 portfolio, it delivers advances in design, quality of workmanship, reliability and performance.

The robust USB 3 uEye CP Rev. 2 is highly suitable for continuous operation in industrial plants, allowing your processes to run efficiently. This guarantees the high quality of your goods and improves the entire production process. With its standard industrial housing measuring only 29 mm x 29 mm, as well as its extremely light and robust magnesium housing, the USB 3 uEye CP is suitable for use in a wide range of industrial and non-industrial environments. Highlights include an integrated image memory, along with access to next-generation, high-performance sensors. The product line starts with brand new CMOS sensors from Sony, Aptina and ON Semiconductor.

The new 2.3 MP sensor by Sony sets a new standard in terms of light sensitivity, dynamic range and colour reproduction. The Sony IMX174 sensor is a fixture in the USB 3 uEye CP Rev. 2 and combines its great features with an exceptionally high frame rate of up to 180 images per second. It provides excellent image quality with extraordinarily low-noise performance. The sensor is perfect for applications demanding excellent image quality even in low-light operational conditions. USB 3 uEye CP Rev. 2 supports the visual tracking of a package in the logistics process – from the first contact within the sorting process until it falls off the ramp. It is the most cost-effective component for your logistics system for the reliable recording of objects on conveyor belts, for instance, packages, luggage items, and other packaging – irrespective of the composition, surface properties, and shape of the objects. Example: Efficient code, text, or feature recognition for picking and sorting systems, for instance, in the pharmaceutical industry or wholesale trade.

The new 18 MP sensor by Aptina, with its high spatial resolution, is the perfect choice for applications including microscopy and barcode scanning. The Ultra HD 4K cinema resolution of the sensor provides optimal performance for visualization. The camera delivers live Full HD video with a frame rate of up to 90 fps. High resolution sensors make the USB 3 uEye CP Rev. 2 the perfect choice for microscopy. Whether in industrial or in research applications, for inspection and fault analysis or observation of cellular structures: the camera is setting new standards in terms of extremely high picture quality. The sensors in the USB 3 uEye CP Rev. 2 offer a wide range of applications in motion analysis and motion therapy for athletes. The camera helps to detect and analyze changes in the human body and treats them accordingly, e.g. foot malposition in general medicine.

The new 1.3 MP sensor by ON Semiconductor fully takes advantage of the fast transfer rate of USB 3.0 and delivers extremely high frame rates up to 200 fps. Applications include intelligent traffic systems, medical, astronomy, quality assurance and 3D scanning. With the high-resolution USB 3 uEye CP Rev. 2, IDS is setting new standards in traffic safety and in digital traffic surveillance. Depending on the measuring technology used, the USB 3.0 CP camera family is suitable for the optimum monitoring of traffic and for preserving evidence in the event of traffic violations. Other examples: Used in traffic optimization for ensuring the smooth flow of traffic or for comparing data during toll controls.

IDS Software Suite is a software package free of license fees that provides a consistent interface for all IDS cameras, even when using mixed configurations of USB 2.0, USB 3.0, and GigE uEye cameras. IDS Software Suite is available for Windows and Linux in both 32 bit and 64 bit versions. Besides the camera drivers, it includes a range of other application software: The IDS Camera Manager is a central and straightforward tool for managing all your IDS cameras. The uEye Cockpit is a live viewer and provides access to all major camera settings and features. Cameras are qualified by quickly measuring tools. In addition, you can capture pictures and videos or configure a stream. Recorded videos can be played comfortably with the uEye Player. More than 25 sample programs in different programming languages such as .NET, C, C++, C#, or Visual Basic demonstrate the integration of the IDS camera using the source code. uEye interfaces offer support for the most popular imaging processing libraries such as HALCON, LabView, NeuroCheck und Cognex. The uEye Hotpixel Editor enables you to define your own hot pixels in the camera in addition to those detected during the factory calibration.
