Intelligent Camera celebrates its tenth anniversary
Michael Engel, the founder of Vision Components® ist a real pioneer in industrial Machine Vision. He developed the first industrial Smart Camera. This year at the Vision 2005, Vision Components® celebrates the tenth anniversary of this fundamental innovation.
In 1995, at the „Vision“ in Stuttgart, Engel showed the first intelligent camera to interested customers. „This was a real sensation“, Engel remembers with pride. „On the show I met Don Braggins, who was writing a column for ‚Image Processing’ at that time. I showed the prototype of the VC11 to Don, who was very enthusiastic about the new product. He insisted in taking a photograph of me with the camera in my hand“. The photo was published in the magazine and word of mouth spread quickly.
