Vision & Sensors

Since the inception of industrial machine vision cameras, various camera interfaces have been developed to meet the needs of the camera manufacturers. 

There are often many possible ways to solve a specific vision task. In some cases, the choice of either 2D or 3D vision is obvious, but in other cases both technologies could work though each provides certain benefits.

Three-dimensional imaging is a rapidly expanding segment of the machine vision market.

Vision systems play a critical role in factory automation. They guide, inspect and track product manufacturing, assembly and packaging to meet today’s quality standards.

The term machine vision refers to the ability of machines to visually perceive their environment. A typical setting consists of a camera for capturing the images, a cable which links the camera to a PC, and the PC which does the image processing.

Up until the late 1970s, the contour projector or optical comparator was the mainstay of automated two-dimensional inspection systems. 

About 57 percent of exhibitors at the world's leading trade fair for machine vision are from abroad.

Automation industry continues to see growth.

The resolution was preceded by an international study under the lead of VDMA Machine Vision last summer.
