USB3 Vision[1] is an interface standard introduced in 2013 for high-performance industrial cameras. It provides a framework for transmitting high-speed video and related control data over USB 3.0 networks. The distribution of software or development, manufacture or sale of hardware that implement the standard, require the payment of annual licensing fees.[2] The standard was initiated by a group of 25 companies, and the committee has since grown to include more than 50 members.[3] The AIA [4] oversees the ongoing development and administration of the standard.
USB3 Vision is based on the USB 3.0 standard. One goal is to unify current protocols for industrial cameras. The other is to make it easier for 3rd party organizations to develop compatible software and hardware. The USB3 Vision standard uses USB 3.0 ports that are becoming standard on most PCs (with Windows 7 service pack and Windows 8 native support expected soon). Components from different manufacturers will easily communicate with each other. The standard is currently in version 1.0.1. It features:
- High bandwidth in excess of 350 MB/s
- Easy-to-use plug and play interface
- Power and data over the same passive cable to five meters (more with active cables)
- Uses GenICamTM generic programming interface
