New iDS uEye+ CP, SE and FA cameras with Sony Global Shutter sensors from 5 - 12 MP

These outstanding Sony Pregius-S 4th Generation sensor models, IMX545, IMX546, and IMX547, are set to be incorporated into iDS uEye+ camera models. The Pregius-S sensors will be implemented into the iDS uEye+ CP (sugarcube format, 29 x 29 mm), uEye+ SE (board-level and fully enclosed) and uEye+ FA (with IP65/67 protection) camera models.

The three selected Sony IMX Pregius-S sensors provide resolutions of 2472 x 2064 (IMX547), 2856 x 2848 (IMX546), and 4128 x 3008 (IMX545). These sensors are equipped with global shutter technology. The "S" in Pregius-S stands for "stacked" and in the Pregius-S design the wiring and circuitry layers are stacked below the photodiodes. Leveraging Backside Illumination (BSI) technology and a small 2.74 µm pixel, users can enjoy outstanding optical performance with high resolution. Notably, the 2/3" IMX546 sensor stands out (models applicable: GV-51J0CP Rev.2.2, GV-51J0FA Rev.1.2, GV-51J0SE Rev.4.2, GV-51J1SE Rev.4.2, GV-51J2SE Rev.4.2) with its square format, maximizing image content capture when observing a scene. These industrial cameras are suited to a wide range of applications from inspection tasks to medical technology and traffic monitoring.

iDS Peak Cockpit and SDK
Before an iDS camera is integrated into an application, its performance can be fully evaluated using the iDS Peak Cockpit application. Peak controls cameras and captures images without having to write a single line of programme code. The intuitive user interface offers control of the numerous camera functions and settings.

iDS Peak Software Development Kit (SDK) supports these new uEye+ cameras with a comprehensive software kit and offers many advantages.

Easy
• Easily understood programming interfaces: C, C++, C# with .NET and Python with identical code base.
• Features facilitate programming, reduce application code, improve readability and enhance camera application quality.
• User-friendly in-built tools, simplify and speed up the preparation of applications.

Comprehensive
• Various application interfaces (C, C++, C# with .NET and Python) for every use case
• Includes many tools, such as the new IDS Peak Cockpit, to set up your cameras even faster and easier
• Many example programs are provided as source code projects for a quick start under Windows and Linux

Versatile
• Supports the new standard uEye+ cameras and the established uEye cameras
• Extends capabilities of FPGA-less low-cost cameras with additional features
• Integrated image processing functions for frequently needed pixel operations such as debayering, colour and gamma correction, flipping and rotating image data as well as useful automatic modes

Independent
• Independent of specific cameras - IDS Peak supports any uEye and uEye+ camera with any firmware version
• All IDS Peak libraries are available for Windows, Linux and Linux Embedded
• Compiler-independent interfaces simplify the setup of the programming environment and increase compiler compatibility
