LumiScan CamDriver

Industrial camera driver for GenICam-compliant GigE Vision cameras.

The LumiScan CamDriver is an industrial camera driver for integrating and operating GenICam-compliant GigE Vision cameras within the LumiScan software environment.

The driver ensures communication between camera and application and enables standardized acquisition, configuration, and transmission of image and 3D data over Gigabit Ethernet networks.

The runtime license is intended for productive deployment on machine and target systems and forms the basis for operating supported cameras in conjunction with LumiScan VGR, LumiScan Metrology SDK, and other LumiScan software solutions.

By supporting the GenICam and GigE Vision standards, cameras from different manufacturers can be integrated using a unified interface.

Frequently asked questions

Which cameras does LumiScan Cam Driver support?

Ethernet cameras that follow GenICam and GigE Vision, from different manufacturers. It has been tested with selected cameras from Basler, Baumer, IDS, LUCID Vision Labs, Hikvision and Balluff; as GenICam implementations vary, required functions are verified before deployment.

How many cameras can one installation run?

Several. Each camera is a module with its own configuration and Data Layer address, and each connected camera needs its own licence.

What does the Cam Driver do with the images?

It captures them on command and publishes them on the Data Layer, where all other LumiScan apps read them. Exposure, pixel format, trigger and other GenICam features are set per camera.

Does it run on a ctrlX CORE?

Yes – on ctrlX OS with the ctrlX Data Layer, and on a PC with Windows 11 or Ubuntu 24.04 with LumiScan Keryx. The node addresses are the same on both.
