The 6855 European Machine Vision Association (EMVA) has appointed Arnaud Darmont as its new standards manager where he will be responsible for promoting the European machine vision standardization activities worldwide as well as coordinating the development process of machine vision standards. Additionally, his role will also involve identifying new standardization needs.

EMVA hosts the development of standards for the machine vision industry such as GenlCam, which standardizes the high-level interfacing of a vision device and a computer. It also focuses on EMVA1288; a characterization and specification procedure for image sensors and cameras used in machine vision.

Jochem Herrmann, EMVA president, said: “We are thrilled to have Arnaud joining the EMVA team to fill such an important role as Standards Manager. He brings profound and long machine vision experience in engineering, management and marketing; and has been working on CMOS image sensors, industrial cameras, image quality, and embedded processing. Furthermore, Arnaud is one of the developers of the EMVA1288 standard. We are looking forward to working with him to take the EMVA standardization activities to the next level.”
