Self-programmed camera functions meet GenICam standard
When users want to execute self-created functions on intelligent cameras, they face two challenges: on the one hand, they often only have access via proprietary interfaces, which makes it more difficult to process data in third-party applications; on the other hand, only few models offer a high-speed data interface such as GigE Vision. However, industrial applications often require both. IDS Imaging Development Systems GmbH therefore combines standard vision industrial cameras with the vision app-based IDS NXT concept. Thanks to a "Smart GenICam App", data generated by customer-specific programming can be used in exactly the same way as if they were part of the manufacturer-independent standard functional scope of the industrial camera.
