Founded in 1988, German industrial digital camera manufacturer is celebrating twenty-five years of innovation, with clear visions for the future.

7094 Basler was one of the first companies to put modern CMOS image sensors onto the market, to integrate powerful and user-friendly interface technology such as Gigabit Ethernet, FireWire and USB 3.0 into industrial cameras, and to take a leading role in the establishment of image processing standards such as GenICam, GigE Vision and USB3 that have gone on to global success.

Dr Dietmar Ley, chief executive officer at Basler is delighted with the developments of the past twenty-five years: "Technologically there's been enormous process during this period. Image processing now pervades our lives. A majority of all industrially-produced products are now inspected using image processing. In the medical field, image processing is used as a diagnostic tool, while traffic control systems use image processing to make traffic flow safely and more smoothly. Our technology plays an important role in daily life, even if its work generally goes unnoticed. Image processing is making our lives simpler and better right now, and will do so even more powerfully in the future as the technology continues to improve."

Company founder Norbert Basler and Dietmar Ley see the company as well positioned for the future. "I'm very proud of what we've achieved by establishing a trusting working environment and by emphasising long-term thinking, and the major opportunities that we've opened up for the coming years," chairman Ley says.
