Vision Sensors in Factory Automation

In factory automation, sensors are used in work cells to gather data for inspection or to trigger other devices. These sensors fall into multiple categories: photoelectric, fiber optic, proximity, ultrasonic, and vision are the most common. Vision sensors offer greater flexibility, perform multiple inspection types within a single image, and generate additional rich data for quality and process improvement.
