● Palm-sized ultra-compact form factor for convenient on-site installation

Industry Applications
Factory automation

Machine Vision Applications in Automotive Production Lines

Background
As a highly automated high-tech industry, automotive manufacturing has successfully integrated many advanced automation technologies into various production processes. Numerous stages in vehicle manufacturing now operate without human intervention, necessitating a reliable inspection technology to verify the correctness of each assembly step and the quality of assembled components. Machine vision technology, with its unique technical advantages, has become the preferred solution for automated inspection systems.

Requirements
● High-performance CPU
● Light source controller supporting 4 channels
● Multiple Ethernet ports and isolated GPIO
● Equipped with PCI/PCIe expansion slots

Solution
