uEye EVS Event-based Cameras
In contrast to conventional industrial cameras, which generate complete megapixel image data, event-based cameras recognise only contrast changes at each individual sensor pixel. These changes are transferred as independent events in real time, while motionless data is completely omitted.
Detecting extremely fast processes
The temporal resolution, i.e. the minimum measurable time difference between two consecutive pixel events, is less than 100µs. This means that even the fastest movements can be captured with a comparable image-based frame rate of more than 10,000 FPS without motion blur. The result is no more “blind spots” between images.
Extremely high dynamic range
See in the dark! Cameras of the product line uEye EVS ensure results even under almost no light. Thanks to the pixel technology, the Sony IMX636 recognises contrast changes even from 0.08 lux. Due to the logarithmic processing of high light values, the sensitivity exceeds that of image-based sensors even in very bright scenes.
Results instead of raw data
Inspired by the human eye, the neuromorphic sensor technology from Sony and Prophesee only captures pixel motion and transfers this data with coordinates and a time stamp. Instead of the brightness values of each pixel, usable results are directly available.
Efficient data processing
As only changes are captured and static areas are ignored, the amount of data to be processed is significantly reduced compared to image-based cameras. This saves memory and computing time.
