The UI-1490LE with the 10 megapixel CMOS sensor (MT9J003STM/STC) from onsemi delivers every detail in top image quality at a resolution of 3840 x 2748 pixels. The integrated scaler allows you to select any image size you require. The sensor also provides horizontal and vertical binning for contrast enhancement as well as subsampling for fast preview modes.
Full HDTV and quad HDTV resolutions are also possible.

The compact USB camera is available either with a plastic compound housing with a C/CS-mount lens adapter, or as a board-level version with S-Mount lens holder or without a lens holder. Thanks to the adjustable flange back distance, fluctuations of standard lenses can be prevented, which means that zoom lenses can also be used.
The board-level version comes with 2 GPIOs, 1 trigger input and 1 flash output, as well as a built-in TWI (Two-Wire-Interface) for controlling external devices. This makes the industrial camera ideal for small device construction. The models of the 2nd revision can also be operated on USB 3.0 ports without compromise.
It’s so easy!
Plug & Play principle
The cameras are automatically detected in the system and are immediately ready for use. Buy a camera, connect it, receive an image - it couldn't be easier!
Reduced to the essentials!
Cost and space saving
The USB 2.0 uEye LE cameras are particularly lightweight and compact. This makes them highly versatile project cameras.

New USB 3 camera technology platform
Due to the worldwide semiconductor shortage with the resulting significant delivery delays, we have developed a new USB3 camera technology platform in the uEye+ product line (match code U3) with identical housings, connectors, sensors, lens holders and features. Electronic components are in stock, prototypes for design-ins for many models are available. Series production of the new USB 3 camera revisions is being established or has already started and will then be continuously expanded. The new USB 3 models are ingeniously supported by our Software Development Kit IDS peak. Our camera finder gives you the life cycle of each camera model so that you can take this criterion into account in your camera selection.
Due to the prolonged delivery times for our existing cameras with USB 3 interface, which can continue to be ordered, we are however only offering the newly developed and ready-to-order hardware revisions on our website. You can identify these by the revision number "Rev. x.2".
As an existing IDS customer, please contact our sales team for further information.
