Machine vision system developers must consider data bandwidth, cable length, and other factors when choosing a camera interface.

Robots are being added in locations that add value so companies can use human employees in higher value areas and tasks still beyond the scope of machines.

It is beneficial to look to the experience of industry experts who have already taken many steps to provide a combination of AI and computer vision solutions.

There are four common reasons why manufacturers should use smart vision acceleration.

Unlike standard vision industrial cameras, AI or inference cameras belong to the device class of “embedded vision systems.” This presents manufacturers with completely new challenges.

Machine vision enables new and exciting advancements in industries and fields of research across multiple disciplines. 

Deep learning is now more user-friendly and practical than ever and together with other vision technologies opens up new application areas, making the inclusion of vision inspection as part of Industry 4.0 even more beneficial.  

One constant in the ever-evolving machine vision space is the need for high-quality, consistent lighting. New challenges in the design and specification of machine vision systems require an innovative approach to lighting selection.

In this article, deep learning refers to developments during the last few years that have enabled applying the technique to entire images in the industrial machine vision space.

As manufacturers worldwide seek to enhance their machines and equipment with online connectivity—an example of the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT)—they are realizing this technology’s remarkable potential. I
