Optimised at cost and yet fast, the light-sensitive rolling shutter sensor IMX290 from the Sony STARVIS series with BSI technology ("back-side-illumination") impresses with outstanding image quality with precise colour separation and ensures true-to-original image reproduction even under poor or unsteady lighting conditions. With its very high sensitivity in the near infrared range, the sensor in the USB3 Vision industrial camera U3-3861SE is an attractive alternative to special NIR cameras - with a frame rate of up to 135 fps at 2.12 MPix (1936 x 1096 px). The small 1/2.8" sensor format offers a wide selection of cost-effective lenses.
The U3-3861SE is a small all-rounder in the 2 MP rolling shutter industrial camera class. With line scan mode and long-time exposure of up to 2,000.0 ms, it is suitable for almost any application.
The U3-3861SE board level camera with C-mount lens holder is available in a colour or monochrome version.
This camera model is supported by IDS Vision firmware 2.0 and higher.

Compact and robust: The uEye SE ("Standard Edition") is the all-round industrial camera with a broad sensor portfolio and countless variants. It has proven itself in industrial use for over a decade. It is consistently designed to support even large-format and fast CMOS sensors and to make best use of the bandwidth of the USB 3 (5 Gbps) interface.
In addition to a screwable USB Type-C connector, the uEye SE with USB 3 (5 Gbps) interface has a screwable 8-pin Hirose connector for trigger and flash (optically decoupled) as well as two GPIOs (each with 3.3 V). This makes them a popular choice for a wide range of applications in single or multi-camera operation. The integrated pixel pre-processing reduces the load on the host PC.
All uEye SE models are available either as a housing variant with a special, extremely dust-tight sensor seal or as a board level camera with various lens mount options. The range of applications is therefore very wide and covers fields such as automation, mechanical engineering, the packaging industry and traffic monitoring.
Note:
Due to the high performance of modern sensors, some uEye SE models are not supported in USB 2.0 mode. The USB 2.0 interface does not provide sufficient power for this. Further information can be found in the IDS Software Suite manual.
Extremely versatile!
For virtually all applications
The uEye SE cameras are available in different versions - including compact, sturdy metal housings and practical board level versions with or without front flange. This makes them a popular choice for a wide range of applications.
Very large selection!
Wide range of sensors
Users can choose from a large number of modern CMOS sensors with a wide range of resolutions that make optimum use of the USB 3.1 Gen 1 interface.
Especially practical!
USB Power Delivery
For the uEye SE industrial camera with USB Power Delivery, IDS offers a variable power supply at the I/O port that can be used to power an LED illumination or a light barrier. This saves cables and power supplies and therefore time and Money.
