IDS Imaging adds Sony Starvis 2 sensors to GigE uEye LE series

IDS Imaging Development Systems GmbH is set to expand its GigE uEye LE series of project cameras by introducing models equipped with Sony Starvis 2 sensors by the end of June 2025. These new single-board cameras, compliant with GigE Vision standards, are designed for high-volume, cost-sensitive industrial applications such as quality assurance, medical technology, and automation. The Starvis 2 sensors, based on CMOS technology, offer enhanced light sensitivity, reduced noise, and extended dynamic range, enabling consistent high-quality imaging even in low-light environments. The new camera models will feature sensor options including the IMX675 (5 MP), IMX676 (12.5 MP), and IMX678 (8 MP), with the 12.5 MP IMX676 sensor particularly suited for applications like microscopy due to its square 1/1.6″ sensor format. IDS emphasizes that these cameras maintain the GigE uEye LE family’s design-to-cost philosophy, making them suitable for integration into
