AI-powered 3D vision system offers fast deployment and reliable inspections for manufacturing automation
NATICK, Mass., April 2, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Cognex Corporation (NASDAQ: CGNX), the leader in industrial machine vision, today released the In-Sight® L38 3D Vision System, which combines AI, 2D, and 3D vision technologies to solve a range of inspection and measurement applications. The system creates unique projection images that combine 3D information into an easy-to-label 2D image for simplified training and reveals features not visible with traditional 2D imaging. AI tools detect variable or undefined features, while rule-based algorithms provide 3D measurements to deliver reliable inspection results.
"In factory automation, where fast deployment and reliability are not just desired but essential, the In-Sight L38 offers both," said Carl Gerst, Executive Vice President of Vision and ID Products. "It's more than a 3D vision system. It's an AI-powered solution for achieving new levels of quality and performance in automated inspections."
The In-Sight L38 greatly simplifies the process of configuring 3D systems thanks to embedded AI technology that uses pre-trained models with domain-specific data. Example-based training replaces complex programming steps, which previously required combining many traditional rule-based tools, to streamline application development. The unique AI-powered 3D tools can be set up in minutes, requiring as few as 5 to 10 labeled images to automate a task. With one tool, users can detect challenging defects, gauge variances in three dimensions, and get results in real-world units.
Patented, speckle-free laser optics in the In-Sight L38 minimize visual noise and glare to capture higher resolution images than traditional laser displacement sensors, while a high-powered laser delivers fast acquisition rates to support high line speeds. The high-powered laser meets Class 2 safety standards, eliminating the need for expensive enclosures, and offers more light than traditional systems, which lowers exposure requirements and allows for increased line speeds.
The In-Sight L38 Vision System reflects Cognex's commitment to innovation, setting new standards for 3D inspection and driving advancements in manufacturing automation. For more information, visit cognex.com/in-sight-l38 or call 1-855-4-COGNEX.
