Optotune and VS Technology present the first wide-angle liquid lens solution for high resolution 1.1″ sensors. With the ability to focus from 100mm to infinity in 20ms, the new 12mm lens is a very reliable and fast focusing solution for today’s logistics and robotics applications.
Systems leveraging AI with real-time object detection through image and video analysis can automate personal protective equipment (PPE) policy enforcement.
The Backlight fluoreSheet is used to provide affordable, indirect illumination for machine vision applications. Unlike other technologies, it doesn´t require power input. A backlighting effect is created when an orange Backlight fluoreSheet is coupled with a blue LED light and an Orange Bandpass Filter.
The 3D camera technology HemiStereo enables for the first time a hemispherical depth detection. The entire half space in front of the camera is measured three-dimensionally, which corresponds to an opening angle of 180×180° (HxV).
Visual inspection in parts manufacturing is expensive, complicated and error-prone – this is the general consensus. Inspekto from Heilbronn has made it its business to change this and promises a plug&play system that delivers reliable results in the shortest time and with minimal installation effort. The inVISION has tested this in a self-experiment.
Embedded World 2020 was affected by the cancellation of numerous companies due to the coronavirus. Nevertheless, there were numerous interesting new products for embedded vision and AI to be seen at the fair, which are briefly presented in this follow-up report.
Development of embedded vision technologies is not solely triggered by machine vision players but also by consumer driven application fields such as smart phones. This creates the need to adapt these embedded vision systems to enable industrial solutions to use them. By addressing these needs, hosted by the EMVA a new standardization initiative has been formed.
Since today’s artificial intelligence does not develop an awareness of what it learns, AI in principle is completely objective. Therefore the risks of using AI are related to the data and not in the AI itself. The current discussion of AI and ethics aims to prevent artificial intelligence systems from discriminating people.
Thanks to a cross-departmental effort involving material development, semiconductor processing skills, system-level design and much more, imec has realized breakthroughs in the capabilities of silicon-based CMOS imagers to detect short-wave infrared (SWIR) wavelengths above one micrometer.
In order to reach the cycle time at an automated bin picking application at Renault Cléon, a double gripper was designed with a vision system. The cell is in the center of the workshop.
In June this year, Stemmer Imaging and Zivid signed a distribution agreement for the Zivid One+ 3D color camera. We took a moment to speak to Tim Huylebrouck, Product Manager at Stemmer Imaging.
Machine vision engineers from all over the world have gathered from 07 to 11 October in Stresa (Italy) at the shore of Lago Maggiore for the International Vision Standards Meeting (IVSM) Fall 2019. This meeting takes place twice a year under the global G3 initiative which is supported by the machine vision associations AIA, CMVU, EMVA, JIIA and VDMA. But what is the IVSM good for?
The developer’s kit CertifEye is a development, debug, and validation solution. It provides developers with infrastructure that injects known images and videos into FPGA/ASIC processing (IP) or an ISP pipeline under test, process them in FPGAs in near or real time, and return results back to the host.
The expansion of computer-vision-based systems and applications is enabled by many factors, including advances in processors, sensors and development tools. But, arguably, the single most important thing driving the proliferation of computer vision is deep learning.
Sony recently released a 247MP rolling shutter CMOS image sensor available in monochrome (IMX811-AAMR) and color (IMX811-AAQR) variants which have a 64.84mm diagonal, a square pixel array, as well as 5.3fps.
The NXT malibu camera from IDS enables AI-based image processing, video compression and streaming in full 4K sensor resolution at 30fps – directly in and out of the camera.
BitFlow has integrated the Nvidia Jetson AGX Orin module with its CoaXPress (CXP) frame grabbers.
