Increased resolution, 3-D measurement and ease of use are placing ever-greater demands on vision software.

In some ways, the machine vision market is no different than its consumer counterpart. Take, for instance, the question of megapixels. The big growth now is in 2- to 5-MP sensors, with 20+-megapixel sensors in niche markets, according to Rick Roszkowski, senior director of marketing for the vision products at Cognex.

“All of these pixels are putting pressure on the vision algorithms, in terms of speed and memory requirements,” Roszkowski said.

Smith Joins Ocean Thin Films
Dr. Steve Smith has been appointed Ocean Thin Films’ manager of its SpectroCam multispectral imaging product line.

Smith will lead the SpectroCam team in continuing to grow the company’s multispectral sensing and imaging applications portfolio. SpectroCam is a configurable, video-speed MSI camera with interchangeable filters and image processing software that reduces development times and speeds products to market.

Smith most recently served as an applications scientist at both Olympus America and Agilent Technologies. Before that, he taught anatomy, physiology and cell biology courses at the University of Northern Colorado.
