IDS Software Suite 4.96.1
The UI-1007XS comes with built-in autofocus and offers many special features that are not available with other camera models. In this chapter, you will find an overview of the different features.
Autofocus system
The UI-1007XS features a built-in autofocus system that is fixed to the sensor. It has a horizontal viewing angle of 52° and can sharply focus as close as 10 cm, either automatically or manually (via software). An integrated API function (is_Focus()) allows setting the focus automatic or manual.
Image sizes
The UI-1007XS transfers live images in different sizes up to FullHD 1080p resolution (1920 x 1080 pixels) at 15 frames per sec. Using the powerful scaling functions, you can optimally represent the entire field of view even at low resolutions.
The CMOS sensor of the XS provides a resolution of 5 megapixels. The full image size is 2592 x 1944 pixels.
Digital zoom
The wide aperture angle of the XS captures a field of view that suits most applications. But you can also zoom in on a smaller area of interest by using the digital zoom (is_Zoom()) feature. Depending on the set resolution, the following zoom levels are possible:

Image controls
As opposed to the other uEye camera models, the UI-1007XS carries out all automatic image controls (is_SetAutoParameter()) internally. This has the advantage that the auto white balance, auto exposure and auto gain (Auto ISO) functions respond very quickly.
Color calculation
The camera's signal processor converts the sensor's raw data to a color format (is_SetColorMode()) in real time before transfer to the host computer. This helps to take load off the computer's CPU. The image data of the UI-1007XS are transferred uncompressed in YCbCr format (2 bytes per pixel). If a different color format (e.g. RGB) is required, the uEye API can convert the data to the desired format.
The UI-1007XS provides separate functions for setting the sharpness (is_Sharpness()) and color saturation (is_Saturation()).
In the Direct3D display mode, you can represent the camera's YCbCr color data directly with minimum CPU load.
