What are the benefits of using a GigE interface camera?
GigE is a well-established and trusted technology due to the many protocols available, such as GenlCam. It is well-suited for a wide range of applications, including high-resolution cameras, real-time image processing, and robust data transmission. Furthermore, because of its twisted shielded pairs, this interface does not suffer from interference due to external sources such as RF (Radio Frequencies). GigE enables long range data transfer, with cable lengths of up to 100m, whereas USB is up to 7m (without optical/active cables).
What are the CU series cameras?
The CU series is a range of GigE and USB 3.0 industrial cameras manufactured by HIKROBOT. They have been meticulously crafted with a low power-consuming platform and unwavering performance. This results in a versatile industrial camera product that not only meets the demands for stability but also provides essential functions. By doing so, it greatly simplifies the process of acquiring vision applications for users. Furthermore, these cameras have built-in image processing with integrated ISP algorithms, such as wide dynamic range, noise reduction, and sharpness, allowing for flexible adjustments based on the user's specific situations. This helps to minimize external disruptions, enhance image stability, and lessen the workload on the back-end algorithm.

FAQ's & Further Information
How do I choose the right camera for my application?
Choosing the right camera involves evaluating several key factors, including the size and speed of the object being inspected, the required resolution, the field of view, and environmental conditions such as lighting and vibration. Understanding these parameters ensures that the selected camera can reliably capture the necessary image data for accurate inspection or measurement.
Do I need a rolling shutter or a global shutter camera?
The choice between a rolling shutter and a global shutter depends on your application, particularly the speed of motion you need to capture and the level of image accuracy required.
A rolling shutter sensor captures an image line-by-line. This makes it a cost-effective option and perfectly suitable for many general-purpose vision tasks where objects are relatively static or moving slowly. However, when imaging fast-moving objects or scenes with rapid changes, rolling shutter can introduce distortion (such as skewing or “jello” effects).
A global shutter sensor, on the other hand, captures the entire image at the same instant. This eliminates motion distortion and ensures accurate image capture, making it ideal for high-speed applications such as industrial automation, robotics, and inspection systems.
