RDMA is an alternative to UDP for high-bandwidth, multi-camera applications, providing an efficient data transfer mechanism that bypasses the CPU and operating system. By storing image data directly onto the host PC's memory, RDMA is ideal for managing large volumes of data in modern high-bandwidth Ethernet camera applications.

One of many driving factors behind this automation growth is that the convergence of multiple technologies — including AI, robotics, and machine vision — has enabled the industry to democratize automation by making it easier to deploy and operate.

It has always been a challenge to keep 3D products in focus under the camera or to quickly scan various objects at different distances. Liquid lens is a new technology that has been developed to adjust the focus of the optic an easier process.

What are the main considerations to keep in mind when choosing a machine vision system for a cobot-based application?

SWIR illumination and imaging unlock powerful new ways of differentiating materials and chemicals that look similar under visible light.

Since no programming skills are required for easy-to-use machine vision software, industrial image processing can provide a valuable contribution to digitization for small and medium-sized companies.

Integrators designing less demanding systems are staying the course with a well-established interface with a robust track record of handling large amounts of data easily and securely: Camera Link.

Before discussing the trends, let’s lay some groundwork by discussing the market drivers for machine vision that ultimately power the trends.

As technology gets easier to use, vision and AI application design is no longer restricted to expert-level developers. A quality manager or IT operations staff can design, train, and deploy their own customizable workflow.
