USB cameras toughen up for the rough environment
The uEye RE camera range are ultracompact USB 2.0 cameras for industrial applications with a completely IP67 compliant housing, ensuring a new level of reliability in the harshest of environments.
Frame rates up to 75frame/s in full frame mode and over 100frame/s using area of interest are possible.
The bandwidth of the USB 2.0 interface enables multiple cameras to be acquiring and displaying on the PC or notebook screen.
The cameras come with an industrial housing.
To ensure robust interfacing, the UEye is equipped with two connectors, a standard USB 2.0 Mini-B USB and an industrial D-sub connector that can be fixed by screws.
All the USB 2.0 pins and the digital input and output signals are available on this connector.
The camera has one digital trigger input and one digital output to control, for example, a flashlight.
Both the universal digital input and the digital output can switch voltages up to 24V.
The signals are optically isolated and available on the D-sub connector of the camera.
The UEye SDK uses direct draw to blend flicker-free text and graphic overlay information into the live video image.
Graphics, date, time and more can be realised with the DD back buffer and DD overlay surface modes.
Direct draw allows flexible displaying of the video images.
