What are the benefits of using a USB interface camera?

USB cameras offer integration with minimal effort and, in some cases, can offer UVC-compliance, which enables plug-and-play. The bandwidth of USB can achieve 5Gbps (depending on whether you are using USB 2.0 or USB 3.0) and can reach a range of up to 7 metres with passive cables. However, you can use an active optic cable to facilitate a longer cable distance of up to 100m, which may require an external power source (Active optic cables, in most cases, are at a higher price point and may not provide power to the end device).

What are the 2U series cameras?

The Imaging Source 2 Series, previously known as the One4All series, presents a range of CMOS colour cameras that serve as an excellent choice for applications that demand a cost-effective USB 2.0 imaging solution. Additionally, the series offers board-level variants for those who prefer that option. These compact cameras provide high image quality and come equipped with features such as binning, windowing, and high-speed readout, resulting in reduced image noise levels. With resolutions varying from 0.4 to 5 MP and frame rates up to these durable digital industrial cameras, they are well-suited for standard machine vision applications that require a USB 2.0 interface.
