We see from your search that you're looking for information on the term "Imaging Systems", and we have a large number of manufacturers' news releases and technical articles here on Engineeringtalk which will be of interest. Let me be your guide.
 
Start with the news release Precision colour images for machine vision from Toshiba Imaging Systems Division, which we summarised at the time by saying "Remote head three-CCD colour camera is ideal for high speed machine vision systems where space is limited". A couple of weeks before, we featured the news release Remote head camera eases vision integration from Toshiba Imaging Systems Division: "Lightweight remote head weighs only 65g and delivers true colour and precision images with no image jitter".
 
In November 2007, we covered the news from Oxford Sensor Technology concerning its OST wheel reading system - take a look at Instrument verifys tyre type which says: "Location of the centre of the wheel and bolt/stud holes is achieved by the greyscale camera system, allowing fast and accurate location for pick and place or wheel fitting robots".
 
Take a look also at the news release from Firstsight Vision, Website explains telecentric lenses, as well as Camera suits machine vision applications from Goodrich Optical and Space Systems, and Software eases engineering programme from SolidWorks Corporation.
