Did you know? LMI created the Gocator® single point profiler as a unique sensor category with smart features and capabilities that no other displacement sensor on the market offers today.

There were many new 3D sensor vendors and solutions for attendees to explore, with an increasing focus on robotic technology, 2D & 3D vision, and system integration.

In certain multi-sensor setups where there are overlapping fields of view, laser interference can occur when the camera from one sensor exposes and detects the laser from another sensor––resulting in what is known as “crosstalk” between sensors. This blog will discuss how Gocator® solves this challenge through a technique called exposure multiplexing.

Glass, shiny metal, and plastics pose a major challenge for quality control inspection as these materials are highly specular and not well-suited to traditional laser measurement technologies. This blog looks at our solution to this challenge based on the recently released Gocator® 2512.

Surface filtering is a powerful tool in machine vision used to generate “cleaner” image data and/or segment features for inspection.

In Gocator® firmware 5.2, the “Surface Section” tool was introduced to give users a new way to extract profiles from 3D surface scans. Profiles can then be measured using all of Gocator’s built-in profile measurement tools.

Discover the main reasons why using a smart vision accelerator is a better way to accelerate your inline inspection than using an industrial PC.

Learn how the term "smart" applies to the world of machine vision and why it is so important to improving your factory production.
