IDS offers flexible customized products for a wide range of applications

27 June 2025

Whether specific technical requirements, unusual environmental conditions or the desire for a camera in a company's own corporate design: Standard products are often not enough to meet the diverse needs of modern industrial companies. IDS Imaging Development Systems GmbH therefore offers customized industrial cameras. The spectrum ranges from simple modifications such as logo imprints or software customizations to completely new designs — precisely tailored to the respective application, the environment of use and the customer's brand identity.


"Our customers benefit from customized camera solutions that are as special as necessary and as efficient as possible," explained Moritz Fuchs, project manager customized solutions. "Thanks to our many years of experience in hardware and software development, we accompany projects from the initial idea to the final integration, with comprehensive advice and technical support."

Efficient, flexible, reliable
By minimizing development effort, companies save time, costs and internal resources. Modifications to the hardware and software of existing series products can be made quickly and easily. The highest manufacturing standards “Made in Germany” and certified processes ensure the quality of every customized industrial camera. In addition, the sustainable design of the solutions guarantees long-term availability and maximum planning security.

Upgrade or completely new development
Whether hardware or software customization — standard solutions become individual systems. Typical customized products include individual designs, special front and lens mounts or customer-specific pre-focusing. White labeling, preconfigured settings and quality assurance agreements are possible on the software side. "The individual adaptation of the camera to our lens changer was implemented in an uncomplicated manner — functionally, cost-efficiently and in a spirit of partnership," says Dr Christian Moitzi, research and development Anton Paar GmbH, describing the handling of the solution tailored by IDS.

IDS also develops and manufactures completely new camera systems for particularly demanding projects — including feasibility analyses, support with system integration and application-specific training. The camera thus becomes a perfectly integrated component — whether in automation, medical technology, agricultural technology or in the transport and logistics sector.

Individually configured from a quantity of 1
IDS also offers the modular uEye ACP system for smaller quantities that require customized configuration. Here, standardized components such as sensor boards, lens mounts and connectors can be flexibly combined — even from a quantity of one. Customers benefit from readily available, highly customizable cameras for prototype development through to series applications.
