What is Embedded Vision used for in real-life?
What is Embedded Vision used for in real-life?
Embedded Vision is used as a technology for integrating cameras and image processing into devices and machines. For this purpose, ultra-compact camera modules, such as the VC MIPI Cameras from Vision Components, are connected to corresponding processor boards, and these embedded vision systems are built into the devices. There are also complete vision systems that directly integrate camera and image processing. Edge processing—meaning data processing directly on the devices without additional computing units—is typical for Embedded Vision.
MIPI CSI-2 has established itself as the standard interface between the camera and the processor board. When selecting cameras and components for professional series products, industrial-grade quality and long-term availability are important.
In which industries is Embedded Vision particularly widespread?
In which industries is Embedded Vision particularly widespread?
Embedded Vision is used everywhere: from automation and quality assurance in industry, to driver assistance systems, autonomous driving, and traffic monitoring, all the way to robotics, agricultural technology, medical technology, and laboratory automation. Driven by the technological advancement of cameras, processors, and AI applications, Embedded Vision is also increasingly being integrated into intelligent household appliances and other smart devices. Cameras and embedded vision systems from Vision Components are used, among other things, in humanoid robots and in space.
What are examples of Embedded Vision applications?
What are examples of Embedded Vision applications?
Typical embedded vision applications are optical inspection systems and equipment for process monitoring in industry, for example, for weld seam inspection. In the automotive sector, embedded cameras are used for driver assistance systems such as lane keeping assist, traffic sign recognition, and emergency brake assist. In smart farming or precision farming, embedded vision systems from Vision Components enable the targeted use of herbicides, and harvesting robots automatically detect the ripeness of fruit.
