Matrox Imaging announced that its Matrox Design Assistant machine vision software now supports DENSO’s binary control access protocol (b-CAP) robot interface.
Recently, I was taken aback by several press releases claiming that Sony has apparently indicated its plan to discontinue the production of all CCD sensors by 2017.
In addition to its own algorithms, SICK will also be using the HALCON image processing library for vision sensors, 3D cameras, and vision systems in the future.
Up to now, cooperation between the two companies has been limited to 3D cameras but it will now be expanded to include various sensors in the vision sector.
TODAY IT’S POSSIBLE TO OBTAIN THE BENEFITS OF MACHINE VISION ON A WIDER RANGE OF APPLICATIONS WHILE AT THE SAME TIME INCREASING INSPECTION ACCURACY AND REDUCING APPLICATION DEVELOPMENT TIME.
In many industries, manual inspection is replaced by machine vision inspection technology for its higher speed and greater accuracy which improves product quality and reduces production costs.
