Vision Sensor Industry Segmentation
Vision sensors consist of the interface, display, video camera, and the computer processor, which help to automate industrial processes. The vision sensors are used to determine the orientation, presence, and accuracy of the elements with the help of an image captured by the camera. They differ from image inspection "systems" in that the camera, light, and controller are contained in a single unit, which makes the unit's construction and operation simple. These are mostly used for measurement and other observable characteristics regarding product quality. These are integral parts of manufacturing that help to increase efficiency.
