Vision, the world's leading trade fair for machine vision, will not take place this year, as Messe Stuttgart, the organizer, has announced. The trade fair was originally scheduled for November 10 to 12.

Allied Vision has added a total of four Alvium cameras with a USB3 Vision interface to the '1800' series. All models feature a 2nd generation Sony CMOS sensor, either with Pregius global shutter technology or with rolling shutter.
IDS Imaging Development Systems
Shifting computationally intensive processes away from the industrial PC and into the camera improves both the speed and accuracy of data processing. But what are the benefits of integrated data processing in detail?
To mark the final spurt of the virtual Computer&AUTOMATION world & conference trade fair, we would like to recommend three web seminars on the topics of robotics, artificial intelligence and intelligent logistics via driverless transport systems.

In quality control, space is often limited, so there is little room for microscope equipment. With the Doku-Kit3, Optometron offers a handy camera-monitor unit that enables self-sufficient microscopy and analysis without a PC.
As part of the production ramp-up for the Audi model derivatives of the A3 successor at the Ingolstadt plant, an automated system for the application of primary seals in vehicle doors was put into operation together with the image processing system solution provider VMT. The details.
In assembly processes, 3D point cloud technology plays a special role in the guidance of industrial robots. Quad-camera sensor solutions that enable multi-stereo recordings are a new approach here.
How can the productivity of logistics processes be increased and the effectiveness of Automated Guided Vehicles improved? One promising approach is a system for automated pallet recognition based on time-of-flight cameras.
