Unveiling the Unlikely: Surprising Sectors Transformed by Robotic Innovations

While it's second nature to associate autonomous systems with typical users like automobile manufacturing and electronics, there exist less obvious industries where they've found an unpredicted home.

CoaXPress over Fiber

Fiber optics transmit data as pulses of light through strands of fiber made of glass or plastic. When bundled with hundreds of other strands, the resulting fiber optic cable will transmit more data at faster speeds and over longer distances than high-grade copper cables.

Omron Introduces the SWIR Camera Series Enabling Precision Inspection Across the Manufacturing Process Using Short Wave Infrared Technology

The new SWIR Camera Series takes inspection opportunities to new avenues by featuring new infrared technology, versatile inspection capabilities, multiple unique interfaces, and one-of-a-kind heat dissipation technology.

Companies to Leverage Imaging Technology Synergies to Target AI-powered Machine Vision in Industry 4.0 Environments

Understanding the Role of Machine Vision in Industry 4.0

Today it is being applied to diverse areas such as monitoring processes for predictive maintenance, and robotic guidance that makes it possible for robots to safely work with and respond to human interactions.

BitFlow Identifies Five Machine Vision Trends for 2023

Today, the market for machine vision worldwide is over $14 billion (USD). Annual growth is pegged at approximately eight percent for machine vision cameras, lens, frame grabbers, processors, and software with no signs of slowing.

Tazza! A 3D-Based Robot Pick-and-Place Vision System

The vision system performs three key tasks: scanning in 3D the raw white vessels; analyzing the 3D scans to establish the vessels' size, shape, position; and communicating the results to the cobot so it can accurately reach the teacups as they move along the production line.

How to Choose the Right Sensor in Ambient Conditions

One of the key considerations while choosing the perfect set of sensors for your robotic designs include their resistance to ambient situations such as temperature, lights, interferences and obstructions.

Automatic Forest Fire Detection System With AI Enables Early and Efficient Fire Fighting

Instead of elaborately programming a solution, neural networks and deep learning algorithms teach an image processing system to see, recognize and verify objects - in this case smoke.

Eagle-Eyed Computers: Machine Vision and Optical Components

Currently, industry news is utterly humming with stimulating updates on machine vision developments from across the globe.

How an Autonomous Machine Vision System Increased Accuracy and Cut Waste

QA is a crucial step in every manufacturing process, regardless of industry size or sector. However, manual QA is not fit for the strict standards of Industry 4.0, since human inspectors may miss defects, especially when inspecting highly complex electrical items.

Achieving End-to-end Automation With Autonomous Machine Vision

The popularity of machine vision for quality assurance (QA) is increasing, but conventional systems lack the flexibility that most manufacturers need.

Intelligent Robotics for Laundries Closes Automation Gap

With a system that uses both 2D and 3D cameras from IDS Imaging Development Systems GmbH, the young entrepreneurs are automating one of the last remaining manual steps in large-scale industrial laundries, the unfolding process.

Time of Flight Forges Ahead: Design Tips to Boost 3D Performance and Cut Integration Time & Cost

Our newest hands-on guidebook describes how you can optimize the benefits of Time of Flight by considering various factors such as the environment of the application and the target object properties in the scene.

Learn How To Protect Your Business with AI for Visual Inspection - Pleora Webinar Live April 6, 2022
