A new firmware update brings exciting new features to our new, in-demand uEye Live camera series.
Take a look at the Vision Channel: There, we also present practical enhancements to our uEye Live Monitoring cameras. Another topic on the expert platform: an application video on a subject that affects us all. How can waste management be made more sustainable and thus our environment cleaner?
Another highlight is on the way: Due to great interest, our popular GigE Vision uEye LE single-board camera will soon also be available with the 1/1.8" global shutter sensor IMX568 from the fourth generation of the Sony Pregius series. Reserve now!

uEye Live Firmware 1.1: Overlays, recording per trigger, FTP, and much more |
|
|
The free 1.1 firmware update adds a number of practical enhancements to our still-young line of monitoring cameras.
Camera information, such as a logo, the location, the status or a time stamp, can now be easily displayed as an overlay on the camera image. The new recording functions offer a wide range of possible applications. Recordings can now also be started with a trigger line and the recording memory can be used more flexible - for a few long videos or many short ones. Saved content can be manually or automatically deleted, overwritten or protected. If memory is low, recordings can be saved directly to an FTP server.
All new features are conveniently configurable via the camera's improved web front end - no programming required. This update makes our monitoring cameras even more powerful and versatile - take advantage of the new features now! |

GigE Vision single-board camera with Sony Pregius global shutter sensor |
|
|
Our GigE Vision uEye LE single-board cameras are cost-optimized and offer modern sensor technology for competitive volume projects. They will soon be joined by a model with the 1/1.8" global shutter sensor IMX568 from the fourth generation of the Sony Pregius series.
The compact Gigabit Ethernet camera delivers up to 24 fps at a resolution of 5.1 MP (2472 x 2062 px) and is particularly suitable for embedded vision applications in areas such as surface inspection, medical technology and traffic monitoring. The sensor is available in color and monochrome versions.
The lens mount design allows the use of C- or S-mount lenses. At the same time, we offer you a bare board camera without a lens mount. For applications with special or narrow housing concepts, an optional available RJ45 interface board provides maximum flexibility. |

| Robot automates pick-and-place processes with AI-supported image processing |

IDS use case: Pick, move, place |
|
|
Pick-and-place applications are a key area of robotics. They are often used in industry to speed up assembly processes and reduce manual activities - an exciting topic for computer science master's students at the Institute for Data-Optimized Manufacturing at the Kempten University of Applied Sciences. They have developed a robot that uses artificial intelligence and computer vision to optimize processes. Based on an assembly drawing, the system is able to pick up individual components and place them in a predefined position - similar to a jigsaw puzzle. The parts can then be manually glued into place by an employee.
Uwing two uEye XC cameras and AI-supported image processing, the system analyzes the environment and calculates precise pick and place coordinates. |

| See more, automate better: IDS at Automate, Detroit 12-15 May 2025 |
|
Experience Americas largest automation event |
|
|
With over 800 exhibitors, the Automate is the largest robotics and automation event in the Americas. You’ll find everything from robotics to vision to motion control, AI and more. And it’s completely free to attend.
Monitoring systems and 3D bin picking applications are becoming increasingly popular for specialists with an eye on automation solutions. IDS addresses this need with uEye Live, a new series of industrial monitoring cameras designed for live streaming and continuous process observation. Additionally, an innovative event-based sensor will be presented, enabling precise motion analysis and high-speed counting. In the 3D camera segment, IDS is showcasing its first fully self-developed time-of-flight camera along with cameras from the Ensenso range.

New in the Vision Channel: AI application & monitoring camera updates |
|
|
Watch our application video to see how Artificial Intelligence is making our cities cleaner and more sustainable, contributing to a turning point in waste management. With c-detect, Bielefeld-based c-trace GmbH has developed the first artificial intelligence (AI)-based system for detecting contamination in biowaste collections. Robust IDS cameras and intelligent image processing ensure sorting purity in biowaste collection.
In this month’s live session, we will introduce the many practical enhancements to our uEye Live Monitoring cameras. We will show you how you can use them to further refine and automate your process monitoring. All you need is a compact uEye Live camera and a browser to configure all the functions. Join us live and take the opportunity to ask your questions. |
