The EyeCheck 5xxx smart camera series by EVT is available as complete bundle together with the EyeVision image processing software or as OEM version. The ready-to-use smart camera is called the EyeCheck 5xxx series and the OEM solution is called RoseCam. Both camera versions are Linux (Ubuntu) smart cameras and are equipped with a quad-core Intel ATOM CPU.

But the cameras are also available with a Windows 10 Operating System (Windows 10 IoT Enterprise). The EyeCheck 5xxx series also offers 4GB DRAM and 64GB storage, as well as a HDMI display port. The series contains CCD and CMOS sensors with resolutions between 0.3-12MP. Both the RoseCam and the EC 5xxx have a LED ring light, which can be dismounted if necessary. The camera also has two programmable, constant LED drivers.

The EyeCheck 5xxx smart camera series with integrated EyeVision software is suitable for fast and accurate image evaluation and can be applied to tasks such as pattern matching, code reading (bar code, DMC, QR), OCR/OCV, object detection, measurement technology and surface inspection.

The EyeVision software is easy-to-handle and can be used intuitively and selfexplanatory, completely without programming skills. The graphical user interface with its drag-and-drop function is used for programming the inspection programs. If needed the EyeVision software can also always be programmed, by using the Script Interpreter. Also EyeVision has the plugin concept, where the user can use libraries from Halcon or OpenCV to create commands for the EyeVision software and integrate them into the graphical user interface.
