For the first time ever a comprehensive Market Intelligence Report on Robot
Vision is made available for you.
Robot Vision, the optical technology to precisely determine a part's position
and thus guide robots and other equipment, is the key to successful automation
in almost all industries and applications, industrial and nonindustrial.
The MIR “Robot Vision 2011” provides an in-depth insight into
industries and markets where Robot Vision and optical positioning is in use
already or will be used in the future.
By interviewing both, suppliers and end users in many different industries the
compilation of an extensive survey of the markets was achieved.
Some of the industries involved are:
- Agricultural & Forrest
- Aerospace
- Automotive
- Food & Packaging
- Foundry
- Logistics
- Medical Engineering
- Military & Defense
- Photovoltaics
- Pharmaceuticals
- Security & Surveillance
- Service Robotics
The report represents information provided by turnkey suppliers, system
integrators, product and component manufacturers and manufacturing companies
out of Europe and North America, such as, Adept Technology, Bluebotics,
Cognex, Comau, Dalsa, Edixia, Fatronik, HGV, LMI, Motoman Robotics, MVTech,
National Instruments, Sick; Tordivel, Universal Robotics and many more.
