The Vision Show, North America’s largest vision and imaging trade show and conference, will be held in Boston, Massachusetts at the Hynes Convention Center, 15-17 April 2014.

Founded by AIA in 1996, The Vision Show provides vision users, system integrators, machine builders and OEMs with access to the latest vision and imaging technologies and applications from nearly over 100 leading manufacturers, distributors and suppliers from around the world.

The accompanying conference features in-depth tutorials and sessions on topics such as the fundamentals of machine vision, lighting and optics, camera and image sensor technology, 3-D vision techniques, designing vision systems, advances in colour vision, metrology and 2-D calibration techniques, non-visible imaging and more.

The keynote address at 9 am on 15 April will be delivered by Dennis Treece, Colonel, US Army (Retired), former CSO and director, Department of Corporate Security and Emergency Preparedness at Massachusetts Port Authority (Massport). Entitled High-end Surveillance and Security – How Technology is Helping Protect Us, the address will explore the technologies used to capture the Boston Marathon bombers and will specifically discuss cutting-edge high-end surveillance technologies where they are used and where future opportunities may be.

AIA’s Certified Vision Professional program classes and exams, both CVP-Basic and CVP-Advanced, will be available at the conference. There is also a special Life Sciences Vision Track on 15 April.

The trade show offers free admission, and the conference offers affordable, flexible registration options. Up-to-date information about The Vision Show can be found at www.visiononline.org/visionshow.

    Jason Barnes asks leading machine vision industry figures what they consider to be the educational barriers to the technology’s increased uptake by the ITS sector. The recent rush by some organisations within the ITS sector to associate themselves with the term ‘machine vision’ underlines just how important the technology has become in a relatively short space of time. However, despite the technology having been applied in certain traffic management applications for some years, there remains a significant s

    Q-Free’s Marco Sinnema looks at how the commoditisation of high-quality vision-based solutions is widening their application. Machine vision technology’s entry into the ITS/traffic management sector has followed a classic top-down path. This is unsurprising given the extremely demanding performance criteria which are the standard in its market of origin, manufacturing processing. Very high image qualities combined with frame rates often in the hundreds per second range resulted in vision systems with capabi
