Cognex is a leading worldwide provider of machine vision products that capture
and analyze visual information in order to automate tasks, primarily in manufacturing
processes, where vision is required. Machine vision products are used to automate
the manufacture and tracking of discrete items, such as mobile phones, aspirin
bottles, and automobile tires, by locating, identifying, inspecting, and measuring
them during the manufacturing or distribution process. Machine vision is important
for applications in which human vision is inadequate to meet requirements for
size, accuracy, or speed, or in instances where substantial cost savings are obtained
through the reduction of labor or improved product quality. Today, many types
of manufacturing equipment require machine vision because of the increasing demands
for speed and accuracy in manufacturing processes, as well as the decreasing size
of items being manufactured.
