‘Vision Sensor’

An Engineeringtalk guide

Start with the news release Micro stepper motors bring pictures into focus from EMS, which we summarised at the time by saying "Electro Mechanical Systems has supplied Precistep micro-stepper motors to Life Optics to allow it to develop a compact, reliable and light-weight head-mounted microscope.". Several months prior to that, we featured the news release Thermometers feature advanced signal processing from Ircon: "Ircon has introduced the Modline 6 Series of infrared thermometers with advanced signal processing and background-reflected energy compensation capabilities. ".
 
In November 2009, we covered the news from Hamamatsu Photonics - take a look at CMOS digital photo IC for colour sensing which says: "Hamamatsu Photonics has introduced a 12-bit digital output colour sensor photo IC. ".
 
Take a look also at the news release from Sherborne Sensors, Sherborne announces MEMS inclinometers, as well as SGS offers acoustic emission testing package from SGS SA - Industrial Services, and PCB sensor measures internal ballistics of guns from PCB Piezotronics.
