Camera recognition

Epson's Vision system is completely integrated into the robot controller's environment. This means that you can use the same tools and software to program and integrate camera vision into your robotics application.

You can use two types of cameras: fixed or mobile.

Advantages

Our system is capable of recognizing over-turned or overlapping parts. It will easily get position, shape and size measurements, which can be used in any of your programs running on the controller.

Installation is straighforward, calibration is very simple. Just follow the step-by-step software wizard, for both the fixed and the mobile camera versions.

Advantages

You can use continuous or discrete (with internal or external trigger) image capturing techniques.

Various focal length lenses are available to meet the requirements of different applications.
