Vision guided robots (VGRs) enable defect free production by providing important quality information, such as data about flaws and measurement tolerances, which a blind robot programmed to act within a coordinate system or stage cannot deliver.
They can detect detects through inspection, which directly impacts quality. They can also use predictability, or a method where a robotic system stops due to a vision system erroring, thereby identifying an issue in the process, as an indirect form of quality.
