Company has expanded its driver software for uEye series of cameras. Key is the "gain boost" function, which brings light into darkness. When gain and exposure are no longer sufficient, the analog image signal is "amplified," brightening the image by a factor of 1.4 to 2, depending on the camera model. The gain-boost feature is available for all CCD monochrome models and many CMOS versions of the uEye series. In addition, the software provides various functions for special models, including the possibility of long-time exposure up to 5.5 s for the UI-1220 CMOS camera and an enhanced image resolution of 1360 x 1024 pixels for the UI-2340 CCD model. Version 2.20 and current update 2.21 can be downloaded for free at company Web site.
