Vision with good visitor response
6505 visitors and 378 exhibitors attended the machine vision trade fair in Stuttgart.

ABB Robotics has opened a test center for material handling with 3D vision in Jönköping, Sweden, to develop automated pick & place solutions with 3D vision.

OnRobot has expanded the functions of its Eyes vision system so that mobile robots and cobots can interact more efficiently.

Baumer has developed the new robot-compatible VeriSens vision sensors XF900 and XC900. They can control the cobots from Universal Robots after just a short set-up time.
Distorted images are problematic for industrial image processing applications, as there is a risk that they cannot be evaluated. With the help of real-time correction for distortion, shading and perspective distortion, Baumer now offers a simple way to achieve precise image evaluation for VeriSens vision sensors.

Vision Components presents its new MIPI camera modules. The compact boards support the MIPI specification CSI-2 and are available with different image sensors.

Polytec introduces the new next generation Navitar Resolv4K lens series. The zoom and fixed focal length lenses have been developed for a larger field of view and high magnification.

The Baumer 10 GigE cameras of the QX series will be equipped with an extended internal image memory of 8 GB and a wider range of functions. The new range of functions will be made available in the 1st quarter of 2019 via a firmware update.

The Framos Group is launching its own embedded vision product range to facilitate the development of imaging solutions.

At the opening of the 28th Vision, the jury announces the winner of the Vision Award 2018 innovation competition. The award for the most innovative development in the field of image processing goes to the Slovakian company Photoneo for its PhoXi 3D Camera.
