Evaluate the quality of a camera, its software and the practices of the vendor for imaging success.
Industrial cameras are designed to handle a range of environmental stresses that include heat, g-forces and electrostatic discharge (ESD), to name but a few. The degree to which an imaging system can handle these stresses depends on the quality of the camera boards used in the manufacture of the camera. Machine vision cameras also need to be properly calibrated to meet the unique needs of industrial environments.
