Illumination techniques for industrial image processing

Illumination techniques for industrial image processing
When implementing an image processing solution, the selection of suitable illumination is a crucial element in determining the quality of the captured images and can have a huge effect on the subsequent evaluation of the image. [more...]

Image processing on the graphics card: GPU beats CPU

Image processing on the graphics card: GPU beats CPU
There are many different ways of increasing image processing speed. In the latest version of Common Vision Blox, STEMMER IMAGING has adopted a new method: offloading parts of the processing to the PC`s graphics card, which can boost the speed of some functions by up to a factor of 10. [more...]

Intelligent eyes in manufacturing

Intelligent eyes in manufacturing
For some time, now everyone has been talking about “smart cameras”, and they are now being used for quality control in many different image processing applications. [more...]

LED vs Halogen

LED vs Halogen
Halogen lamps used to be the conventional light emitters for many image processing illuminators. But now the LED, with its longer life, lower operating costs and the associated increased operations security is ready to take over. [more...]

Quality right down the line
To inspect sheet steel, paper web or other uncut materials for errors at extremely high speed during their manufacture, line-scan based image processing systems are often the only technically and economically viable solution. [more...]

WEEE and RoHS

WEEE and RoHS
Back in the spring of 2003, the European Council passed the EU WEEE (Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment) Directive governing the recycling and return of electrical and electronic equipment and the RoHS (Restriction of the Use of Hazardous Substances) designed to reduce the use of hazardous substances.
