How do you monitor industrial processes without complex software, a PC, or complicated cabling? Our new video shows how easy it is to get started with process monitoring using uEye Live cameras: plug-and-play operations, control via web front end, and useful features such as DPTZ and privacy zones - everything running directly on the camera. If you also need image analysis, you can scale up to the more powerful platform with IDS NXT cameras without any additional effort.

But even the best camera needs the right lens. With the wide range of IDS C-mount lenses, the question arises: Which lens is the right one for your application?

In our second video, we introduce the IDS Lens Finder. The tool takes parameters such as object distance, sensor format, and sensor type into account, then recommends suitable lenses. Product Sales Specialist Rob Webb explains what to look for when selecting and how to find the optimal lens for your application from the suggested options.
