The Imaging Source Announces New Series of Industrial Cameras

The Imaging Source has just brought to market a new series of progressive scan, CMOS cameras, which ship with a USB 2.0 connector. The series of 12 different cameras includes color and monochrome models, with resolutions from 640x480 to 2048x1536. The cameras ship in robust industrial casing with a C/CS lens mount and optionally come with a fully integrated ring light system. 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. 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.
