For Smart Factories, a Vision of Success
For Smart Factories, a Vision of Success
Smart factories require collecting information about products, processes, and people to achieve highly automated manufacturing. In this undertaking, machine vision will supply key data. Traditionally, vision technology has performed parts inspection, product tracking, or robot guidance. Because of smart factories’ increasing emphasis on process control and wide sharing of vision outputs, vision systems now face new demands.

Multispectral Lighting: A Practical Option for Difficult Industrial Imaging Situations
Multispectral Lighting: A Practical Option for Difficult Industrial Imaging Situations
During the past few years, color and spectral imaging approaches have become more prevalent in machine vision system design. Today, machine vision lighting companies and industrial camera designers are working to provide multispectral solutions for industrial applications by either adding more color channels to their standard red, green, blue (RGB) cameras or by implementing new lighting methods for performing spectral analysis. With reduced hardware and computing costs, and advancements in vision software, these tools have become viable options for integrators over a wide range of applications.

AI + 3D Machine Vision Transforms Depalletization
AI + 3D Machine Vision Transforms Depalletization
Manually offloading pallets requires scores of employees to work nonstop. Extensive job and safety training is required, and because the task is physically demanding, injuries often result, leading to increased absenteeism. These are a few of the reasons companies are increasingly electing to automate depalletization. Robots can work around the clock every day of the year, without human intervention. And they require less floor space in which to operate.
