1 INTRODUCTION 
 
Congratulations on buying the Inca vision system! 
 
An Inca is a high quality intelligent camera for image 
acquisition and processing. Inca offers a complete vision 
system that is ACCURATE, FAST, COMPACT and COST-
EFFECTIVE. The high-resolution, high dynamic range 
sensor provides the best basis for the development of a 
very accurate vision system. Having all the processing 
power close to the sensor and the capability of region of 
interest processing reduces processing time and thus 
faster systems can be realised. Because of this integrated 
processor, display capabilities and industrial I/O, the Inca 
offers a very compact total vision solution, without any 
need for additional hardware like e.g. a PC. This makes an 
Inca solution besides very cost-effective also transparent 
and easy to work with. Finally the industrial housing 
provides optimal possibilities for incorporating the Inca in 
almost every (industrial) environment.
