Expanded Compatibility and Enhanced Features: Support for USB3 Vision Cameras in IC Imaging Control 4
Published on July 11, 2024 by TIS Marketing.
In January of this year, The Imaging Source introduced IC Imaging Control 4 (IC4) - a strategic shift to a unified software environment that aligns with the GenICam GenTL standard for optimal cross-platform integration of our industrial cameras. IC4's initial release supported GigE Vision cameras with a beta version GenTL Producer for USB3 Vision cameras. After a thorough beta phase, we're excited to announce you can now download GenTL Producers/IC4 Drivers for The Imaging Source's USB3 Vision cameras.
Our software team has also extended the firmware for USB3 Vision cameras to include advanced features such as events and chunk data, enabling a variety of new image processing applications*. Furthermore, we've included additional interoperability libraries that expand compatibility with various third-party software, offering users more flexibility and control in their image processing applications.
The next release of IC Imaging Control 4 is scheduled for Q3 2024 and will include support for Linux.
*Please note: Some hardware configurations may not support all features.
