Vision Systems

 

Vision forms a critical element of intelligent processing. In many cases it is the only way to differentiate the features required to trigger an action. Machine vision is the output of the integration of hardware and software to execute process functions by capture and processing digital images. An example of this is inspection process.

Using a suitable camera (or cameras) it takes images of items passing by on a line, processing algorithms then determines if an item meets required standards or not. If ‘a go’, the item proceeds to the next stage in the process, if ‘a no go’, the item is redirected as a reject for more detailed examination or disposal. 

Selecting the appropriate solution and integrating it into the process takes a lot of time and there are a lot of options.

The level of complexity and processing intelligence involved is dependent on the needs of the application. Cameras may be mounted on overhead gantries, at the end of cobot arms and many other locations as required.
