Low code platform streamlines design and deployment of AI and machine vision applications for automated quality inspection.

The phenomenal rise of collaborative automation systems over the past decade or so has seen collaborative technologies deployed on a growing number of quality control applications. Collaborative automation enables companies of all sizes to improve throughput and reduce cycle times on inspection tasks.

Ximea introduced new models using Sony Medium format BSI sensors with exceptionally high resolution.

JAI announced an expansion of the Go-X Series of small machine vision cameras to include 24 new global shutter camera models featuring the latest Sony Pregius S CMOS sensors. 

Teledyne FLIR, part of Teledyne Technologies Incorporated, introduced the Neutrino SX12 ISR1200, the first model in the new Neutrino Ground ISR series of high-performance, MWIR camera modules with integrated CZ optics.

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

With robot vision guidance systems, both 2D and 3D, flexible material handling is made possible for industrial production and warehousing.

Imaging sensors in the machine vision space have traditionally fit into cameras utilizing only a couple of different camera mounts. However, newer sensors are beginning to grow far too large. Lens and camera manufacturers need to collaborate to develop new mounting standards for the new, large sensor formats.

The highest volumes of machine vision cameras being sold are those that are small in size and small or small-ish in price. This demand has resulted in a wide array of compact, affordable cameras being created by many different manufacturers.

Cameras are the eyes of visual quality inspection systems. Cameras and machine vision technologies help to improve quality by automating processes, making them more precise and repeatable, while also boosting their speed and throughput.
