Welcome to the UK Industrial Vision Association
The primary objective of the UK Industrial Vision Association is to promote the use of image processing technology by manufacturing industry in the UK. One of the most important ways in which this is done is to provide information about all the members, on a factual and uniform basis, to all enquirers.
To aid visitors seeking to learn about Industrial Vision Systems we have devised a What is Vision? section which provides information from all aspects of the industrial vision manufacturing industry. Featuring articles relating to compact vision systems, smart cameras, image processing and automated inspection.
Although machine vision implies automatic interpretation of images, the Association also provides information on other forms of electronic imaging such as infra red, x-ray and high speed cameras, not always subject to automatic analysis.
What is an industrial vision system? Read more about what Industrial Vision systems are and how they are integrated in to the UK Industrial Vision industry. To learn more about Industrial Vision please see our What is Vision section plus 21 financial reasons for using vision.

 | The IPSC Strobe Controller series available from FRAMOS Electronics Ltd is designed for Industrial Machine Vision camera applications where fast moving objects need be captured with minimal blur. To achieve this, the strobe controller generates very bright LED flashes (strobes) precisely synchronized with the cameras image capture during the very short exposure times. Due to the ultra-short, but high power strobes, the illumination intensity is significantly increased and at the same time, the thermal effects for the LEDs are reduced. This method of lighting control exploits the characteristics of the LED illumination devices beyond their standard mode of operation without affecting their lifetime and reducing overall system costs.
