Depending on the sensor model, the camera performance may be limited with the minimum system requirements.
USB interface
For best performance and stability, all USB drivers and the firmware must be updated to the latest version!
Current generation CPUs with energy saving technologies can cause bandwidth problems on the USB bus.
The uEye driver can use Direct3D to display the camera image with overlay information. To use the Direct3D functions, a suitable version of Microsoft DirectX runtime has to be installed on the system.
On Windows systems, you can use the supplied "DXDiag" diagnostic tool to check whether your graphics card supports Direct3D functions. To start the diagnostic tool, click "Run…" on the Windows start menu (shortcut: Windows+R) and enter "DXDiag" in the input box.
Note for 64-bit systems: On a 64-bit operating system, the setup installs only 64-bit DirectX libraries. If you are using a 32-bit application and do not have 32-bit DirectX libraries installed, using DirectX will fail. In this case, the 32-bit DirectX libraries must be installed manually.
OpenGL graphics functions
For OpenGL, version 1.4 or higher must be installed.
Microsoft Visual Studio
The following versions of Microsoft Visual Studio are supported: Visual Studio 2008 - Visual Studio 2019.
