Machine vision camera companies expand focus to include embedded vision

摘要

As embedded vision system cost, size, and power consumption decrease over time, machine vision and image processing will proliferate into thousands of new applications. Perhaps realizing this, three time-tested machine vision camera companies have expanded their product development and focus into the realm of embedded vision over the past year. Basler (Ahrensburg, Germany; www.baslerweb.com), a company that recently acquired embedded vision consulting and development company mycable Gmbh and launched the Imaginghub online portal for embedded vision, in February introduced a set of cameras based on existing dart cameras that feature the MIPI CSI-2 interface.
