From the end of July, the range will be expanded to include new models equipped with Sony STARVIS 2 rolling shutter sensors, covering resolutions from 2 to 12.5 megapixels. They deliver excellent image quality even in difficult lighting conditions.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.mymepax.com\/pressdoc_files\/113293\/image\/ids-pri-uEye-FA-ip69k-Sony-STARVIS-2.jpg_ico500.jpg\" alt=\"\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><em>uEye\u202fFA cameras with IP69K protection and Sony STARVIS 2 sensors<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This provides users with high-performance cameras for a wide range of industrial applications with varying lighting conditions \u2013 from manufacturing automation to quality inspection. The new models incorporate sensor variants IMX662 (2 MP), IMX664 (4 MP), IMX675 (5 MP), IMX678 (8 MP) and IMX676 (12.5 MP). All are GigE Vision-compliant, allowing easy integration into existing systems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Sony STARVIS 2 sensors impress with their exceptional light sensitivity extending into the near-infrared (NIR) range, very low noise levels and the Clear HDR process for an extended dynamic range. This enables the capture of detailed, sharp images even in demanding environmental conditions. An asynchronous exposure trigger further ensures the sensors are ideally suited for industrial use.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The camera hardware itself has also been consistently designed for industrial applications: Thanks to the IP69K-protected housing, lens tube and corresponding cabling, the cameras operate reliably even under high pressure, heavy contamination or temperatures down to \u201320\u00b0C.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>When production systems are cleaned using high-pressure jets, operate in dusty environments or are exposed to sub-zero temperatures, particularly robust machine vision solutions are required.
