The Smart Vision Sensor
The power of the Smart Camera comes from a Smart Vision Sensor. It is a combination of image sensor, A/D-converters and general-purpose image processors on the same semiconductor chip.

The built-in processor array handles a full row of pixels in parallel. It is based on an SIMD (Single Instruction, Multiple Data ) architecture containing 1536 parallel processing elements. The Smart Vision Sensor operates together with a microcomputer which controls the processing and interprets measured values.
Laser Line Triangulation
Our products for high speed 3D Machine Vision are based on laser line triangulation, which is a well proven and robust method to acquire high quality 3D shape. The Camera analyzes the contour of a laser line projected from a different angle relative to the camera. The height is calculated from the position of the laser line analyzed by the camera. Our optimized implementation gives a performance of more than 100 times traditional CCD cameras.
