Many people approach machine-vision projects from the wrong direction. Instead of worrying about computer power and image-processing algorithms, they should first think about light. Without the proper ...

Part of Microscan's Nerlite machine-vision line, Hi-Brite machine-vision lights leverage the brightest LED illumination in its class. The manufacturer claims that Nerlite Hi-Brite lights provide ...

Smart optical sensors inspired by the human retina could improve artificial-vision systems used in autonomous vehicles and industrial manufacturing 1. Machine-vision systems are networks of cameras ...

Advanced LED lighting arrays can spectrally tune their output wavelength to highlight different features and defects in captured images. The capability enables a single light fixture to quickly adapt ...

Working on a machine vision project requires understanding each part of the system, including light sources, frame grabbers, and computers. Here is a primer on two essential machine-vision terms.

Machine vision refers to a computer being able to see. Often, the computers use different cameras for video, Analog-to-Digital Conversion), and DSP (Digital Signal Processing) to see. After this, the ...
