Taking place in Stuttgart from 8-10 November, Vision, the international trade fair for machine vision, is rapidly approaching.

A wide range of machine vision technology will be showcased at Vision, which aims to be the market place for all component manufacturers and a platform for system providers and integrators.

Vision showcases the technological developments and trends in the industry and the organisers say this year’s event has three main technological 'hot' topics: embedded vision, 3D machine vision and hyperspectral imaging. An embedded vision open forum will be held on the first day of the trade fair. Machine vision standards will also be presented by the European Machine Vision Association (EMVA), which is organising a special exhibition with other partners.
 
One of the key features is the comprehensive forum programme at Vision with some 90 seminars this year. At the Industrial Vision Days and the Vision application forum, experts from around the world will discuss the latest topics, including production control with self-learning smart cameras and chemical fingerprinting: new possibilities for industrial machine vision. The forum programme is complemented by the School of Vision where visitors can gain compressed specialist knowledge, practical hints and application knowledge in 14 sessions.

Machine vision institutes will also present the latest research topics during the VDMA Technology Days.

    Jo Versavel, Managing Director of Traficon, talks about near-term trends in video camera systems. Jo Versavel starts by making one thing clear: long-term forecasts as to what the future holds for video-based traffic monitoring are to all intents and purposes meaningless. The state of the art is developing so fast that in reality it's impossible to say where we'll be in 10 years' time, says the Managing Director of Traficon. In his opinion making firm predictions even five years out is too ambitious, whereas

    Basler’s Enzio Schneider explains why advances in CMOS technology provides new opportunities for vision-based ITS applications. Since the beginning of 2015, or even before, it seems obvious that all roads in vision-based ITS applications lead in one technological direction – CMOS. Initially perceived as a trend in vision technology, it has taken a step towards status as the new benchmark with Sony’s announcement to discontinue their CCD production. CMOS sensor technology has become the future for industrial
