Vision Components has launched a new type of embedded vision system for 3D and dual-camera applications. The VC Stereo Cam can be flexibly configured for a wide range of OEM projects. It is based on the powerful VC Power SoM image processing module with an onboard FPGA, which preprocesses large data volumes in real time and transfers the results in the MIPI data stream to a higher-level CPU. This allows users the free choice of their processor platform. The FPGA is open for customer programmi

IDS NXT is a comprehensive system with a wide range of workflows and tools for realising your own AI vision applications. The intelligent IDS NXT cameras can process tasks ‘OnDevice’ and deliver image processing results themselves. The tasks of the cameras are determined by apps that are uploaded to the cameras and executed there. Their functionality can thus be changed at any time. This is supported by software such as IDS NXT lighthouse, with which users can not only train neural networks, but

Entering the era of Industry 4.0, manufacturers attempt to increase their competence by lowering cost and lifting quality during product inspection. That’s where the technology of machine vision comes into play. Why Machine Vision Can Upgrade Your Quality Control Quality control is often carried out manually by manufacturers, requiring domain expertise. But this is not the case for Industry 4.0, as the slow manual inspection sometimes ends up in a low efficiency and high cost. Benefi

Evatronix has announced the release of its all new Quadro+ dual-band scanner, designed from the ground up. It replaces the previous HD Quadro dual-band scanner. The Evatronix R&D department has focused on scanner design to meet customer needs. In recent years, attention has been paid to the growing market demand for scanners capable of satisfying the widest possible range of applications. The first Evatronix scanner with two scanning ranges, HD Quadro, was developed in 2017. The scanner had a

Inspekto has launched a new software version of its INSPEKTO S70 Autonomous Machine Vision system. Based on accumulated customer feedback from numerous field deployments, the INSPEKTO S70 offers smart features such as a recommendations centre that guides users in creating and maintaining inspection profiles over time, improving usability, versatility, process integration and accuracy of inspection. The INSPEKTO S70 enables manufacturers to focus on agile manufacturing and process automation, whi

Saccade Vision will launch its Saccade-MD feature-based 3D camera for industrial measurement applications at upcoming Automatica 2022 expo in Munich, Germany. Saccade-MD is a novel imaging solution that overcomes some key limitations present in traditional 2D and 3D imaging technologies. Saccade-MD is a feature-based static laser line scanner based on a special MEMS scanner for absolute scanning flexibility. This scanning flexibility allows optimizing image acquisition separately for diff

Opto Engineering has launched the PCCD2M, a high-resolution 360° view lens optimized for 1-in sensors. The pericentric catadioptric lens is designed to provide an all-round view of small objects without multi-camera systems or part rotation. PCCD2M provides a high-resolution top and lateral view of the inspected object in a single shot for parts of diameter 7–35 mm. The C-Mount PCCD2M is suited to the inline inspection of components such as pharmaceutical containers, plastic caps, preforms, bott

IDS Imaging Development Systems GmbH is launching an industrial camera with autofocus that is just as easy to operate as a webcam. Setting up and commissioning the uEye XC 13MP USB3 camera only requires a cable connection. It then immediately delivers high-resolution, detailed images and videos. Unlike webcams from the consumer sector, uEye XC is specially designed for industrial requirements. Its components score with long availability – a must for industrial applications. It is used, for examp

BrainChip Holdings , the world’s first commercial producer of neuromorphic AI IP, and  Prophesee , the inventor of the world’s most advanced neuromorphic vision systems, has announced a technology partnership that delivers next-generation platforms for OEMs looking to integrate event-based vision systems with high levels of AI performance coupled with ultra-low power technologies. Inspired by human vision, Prophesee’s technology uses a patented sensor design and AI algorithms that mimic the e

Smart Vision Lights (SVL) has received patent number US 11,328,380 B2 for its latest machine vision light innovation and standout at the recent  Automate 2022  conference and exhibition: the DoAll Light. The patent is the latest addition to the Smart Vision Lights portfolio of patented machine vision–related illumination technology. “Not being able to gather together the last two years made this year’s Automate 2022 conference in Detroit something special,”  noted Matt Pinter, CTO, Smart Vis

The AllRounDia DualVision system from PIXARGUS continuously checks the contours and surfaces of hoses, tubes and cables – around the products’ complete circumference and along their complete length. This affordable multi-talent has been tested on a wide range of standard applications, is extremely user-friendly and – as a truly Plug-and-Play system – providing 100% defect control. Extrusion processes are increasingly tightly timed, and the constantly growing number of product var

At the  Institute for Machine Tools  (IfW) at the University of Stuttgart, a Compact Cobot relieves employees of the task of measuring tool wear. The system consists of a UR10e from Universal Robots and an optical 3D measuring sensor from Bruker Alicona. It enables measurements directly in the machine tool, eliminating the need to clamp and unclamp the tool. Measurements have thus become faster and more efficient. The Role of Tool Wear in Machining Processes More than 30 scientific empl
