Vision sensor adds color
Staff -- Test & Measurement World, 9/1/2006 2:00:00 AM
The new color version of the Omron Smart Sensor, the ZFV-C, offers sensing capabilities close to human vision, including the ability to distinguish shapes and colors. Color sensing enables the ZFV-C to “see” images invisible to monochromatic sensors. Integrated color filters enable sensing of only selected colors when it is necessary to get a better image. The ZFV-C also features a “teach and go” function using a color LCD screen and simple menu to reduce setup to a few simple steps. The screen shows a live image for instant feedback during both setup and inspection operations.
There are eight sensor functions available, depending on the controller used: counting, pattern recognition, size verification, position, brightness, width, text verification, and hue (comparing sensed color to a reference color). As many as five sensors can be connected to one controller bus through a snap-on system, allowing five different inspections in one pass to greatly increase productivity.
