Cameras
Basler stereo camera family Basler has added an industrial-grade stereo camera series to its product portfolio. Te cameras are available with two different baselines – 65mm and 160mm – and monochrome and colour versions. All cameras are equipped with a pre-
installed, modular software package suitable for typical robotics applications, such as object recognition or bin picking. Te software contains six modules adapted for different robotics tasks. Te aim is to make the cameras plug-and-play. Basler worked on the stereo cameras with
Munich-based Roboception, a specialist in 3D vision hardware and software. Te aim of the cooperation with Roboception was to make intelligent stereo solutions that are user friendly, so that a wide range of customers are able to implement vision- guided robots.

DataMan 280 barcode reader Cognex has introduced the DataMan 280 series of fixed-mount barcode readers, engineered for 1D, 2D and direct part mark (DPM) code applications in manufacturing and logistics. Te DataMan 280 features a 1,440 x
1,080-pixel sensor combined with a dynamic image formation system to improve code handling and coverage. Te device is fitted with connectivity options for today’s Industry 4.0 manufacturing needs. DataMan 280 offers web browser
connectivity, device management, performance monitoring and fast image offload. It allows users to configure multiple devices at once and begin trending important system performance metrics quickly. Te device uses modular hardware,
including interchangeable lights and lenses, along with the latest software algorithms. DataMan 280 can be configured straight or at a right angle for tight spaces, and is compatible with most DataMan 260 accessories for easy upgrade. For applications with a large field of view and multi-side scanning at high speeds,
multiple readers can be deployed together. Application examples include decoding
difficult DPM codes on challenging surfaces of automotive parts, reading and tracking small DPM codes on medical devices, or reading barcodes on high-speed packaging lines. Other typical tasks include reading multiple codes simultaneously, presentation scanning and label-based 1D and 2D code reading on pallets behind reflective foil.

Dualis 2D vision sensors New from Ifm Electronic are Dualis 2D vision sensors. Tese sensors are capable of checking patterns, shapes, areas, dimensions, contours and target contrast, either as individual parameters or in combination. Typical applications include: detection of missing components in assemblies; identification
NXT Ocean vision sensor New features have been added to the IDS NXT Ocean camera. Tese include multi-region- of-interest for AI-based object detection, and the possibility to use different neural networks for different ROIs in one image via Vision App. In addition, there are binning, line scan mode, and performance and configuration improvements. Tere’s also the option to use IDS NXT
Lighthouse training software in AWS or, now, via Microsoft Azure Cloud. Users can start training their own neural network in NXT Lighthouse without prior knowledge of deep learning or camera programming. Tis involves uploading sample images, labelling them and then running automatic training. Te network is optimised for use with IDS NXT industrial cameras. Users can trial NXT Lighthouse free for one month.

of malformed threads, missing holes or incorrectly applied adhesive; sensing incorrect product orientation or positioning; and counting the number of items present in a target area. Te Ifm Vision Assistant application software, supplied as standard with the sensors, incorporates wizards that provide detailed guidance for many of these applications, and also offers an advanced mode with additional functionality. Dualis sensors feature integrated
illumination and are available in both infrared and RGB-W versions. With the RGB-W versions items can be distinguished by colour, while the built-in polarising filter also makes it possible to detect highly reflective objects easily. To minimise the effect of extraneous light, the sensors incorporate a daylight filter and, in strongly fluctuating light conditions, they can be configured to take up to
five images with different exposure times and automatically select the best for analysis. Te devices can be supplied with
standard, wide-angle or telephoto lenses, with all versions available with either Ethernet/IP or Profinet TCP/IP interfaces.
