Industrial Cameras - Letting Robotic Arms See

Robotic arms are widely used in industrial automation. They complete tasks which humans cannot accomplish, are considered too time consuming or dangerous, or which require precise positioning and highly repetitive movements. Tasks are completed in high quality with speed, reliability and precision. Robotic arms are used in all areas of industrial manufacturing from the automobile industry to mold manufacturing and electronics but also in fields where the technology might be less expected such as agriculture, healthcare and service industries.

Robotic Arms "See" with Machine Vision

Like humans, robotic arms need "eyes" to see and feel what they grasp and manipulate: machine vision makes this possible. Industrial cameras and image processing software work together to enable the robot to move efficiently and precisely in three dimensional space which enables them to perform a variety of complex tasks: welding, painting, assembly, picking and placing for printed circuit boards, packaging and labeling, palletizing, product inspection, and high-precision testing. Not all industrial cameras are compatible with or can be installed in robotic arms, but The Imaging Source's GigE industrial cameras provide an optimal solution.

GigE Industrial Cameras from The Imaging Source - The Cost Effective and Highly Versatile Imaging Solution

The Imaging Source's GigE industrial cameras are best known for their outstanding image quality, easy integration and rich set of features. They are shipped with highly sensitive CCD or CMOS sensors from Sony and Aptina, which offer very low noise levels, provide multiple options in terms of resolution and frame rate, guarantee precise positioning capture and output first-rate image quality. External Hirose ports make the digital I/O, strobe, trigger inputs and flash outputs easily accessible. Binning and ROI features (CMOS only) enable increased frame rates and improved signal to noise ratios. The cameras' extremely compact and robust industrial housing means straightforward integration into robotic assemblies.

In addition, The Imaging Source's GigE industrial cameras are shock-resistant, so camera-shake and blurred images can be avoided. The cameras are shipped with camera-end locking screws, and the built-in Gigabit Ethernet interface allows for very long cable lengths (up to100 meters) for maximum flexibility.

The Imaging Source's GigE industrial cameras come bundled with highly compatible end-user software and SDKs which makes the setup and integration with robotic arms fast and simple. Trained personnel without extensive robot programming experience can reprogram the cameras to complete new tasks in a snap. These camera characteristics, along with their competitive price, make The Imaging Source GigE industrial cameras the perfect solution for robotic arm applications.

Suitable cameras for robotic arms:

• GigE color industrial cameras
• GigE monochrome industrial cameras
