Exciting News: Cognex Launches In-Sight D900 Embedded Vision System

     Great news! Cognex has introduced a new industrial smart camera, the In-Sight D900 Embedded Vision System. The In-Sight D900 is an innovative product where Cognex engineers have integrated the Cognex ViDi deep learning software into the In-Sight industrial smart camera. This standalone system, professionally designed, can address complex online inspection applications, including Optical Character Recognition (OCR), assembly verification, and defect detection.

"An increasing number of advanced manufacturers are opting for deep learning technology to tackle detection applications that are too complex, time-consuming, or costly in terms of programming for human or basic machine vision," said Joerg Kuechen, Senior Vice President of Vision Products at Cognex. "By incorporating the Cognex ViDi deep learning software into In-Sight devices, customers can economically and effortlessly resolve complex visual inspection applications."

The In-Sight D900 combines the self-learning capability of human inspectors with the robust durability and consistency of vision systems, significantly expanding the inspection scope in automated factories. Setting up the In-Sight D900 requires only a small number of image samples and utilizes the familiar and user-friendly Cognex spreadsheet platform. Additionally, deploying In-Sight D900 does not require a computer or specialized knowledge in deep learning.

The In-Sight D900 is suitable for manufacturers across various industries, including automotive, consumer electronics, consumer goods, packaging, food and beverage, medical devices, and logistics. It can assist manufacturers in these industries in upgrading factory automation for complex inspection applications.

In-Sight ViDi Read Tool Solves Challenging OCR Applications in Minutes

The In-Sight D900 uses Optical Character Recognition (OCR) technology, capable of decoding severely deformed, skewed, or poorly etched codes. With the pre-trained font library of deep learning, the In-Sight ViDi Read tool is ready to use, significantly reducing development time. Simply set the region of interest and character size. Even with the introduction of new characters, this reliable tool can be retrained to read application-specific characters that traditional OCR tools cannot decode.

In-Sight ViDi Check Tool Performs Assembly Verification Quickly and Accurately

The In-Sight D900 can reliably detect complex features and objects and verify the correct assembly of parts and kits based on user-defined positions in the layout. The In-Sight ViDi Check tool can create an extensive component library through training, easily recognizing them even with variations in angles and sizes in the image.

In-Sight ViDi Detect Tool Analyzes Complex Defect Detection Tasks

The In-Sight ViDi Detect tool learns from images of qualified parts and can identify defective parts. It is an ideal tool for recognizing complex parts and surface abnormalities, even handling unpredictable defect appearances.
